Meatless March Day #16: Broccoli, Macaroni & Cashew Cheese Bake

This was a hit and really easy!  I used the cashew cheese that I made for the creamy cauliflower recipe and just added broccoli and noodles and turned it into a bake.

Vegan mac and cheese
 Note: We had about 1/2 oz. of daiya cheese left from Friday's pizza so I threw that on top, in case you are wondering what that is in the picture.

Ingredients:
cashew cheese to coat nicely
1 lb. frozen broccoli florets
4-6 oz. of whole grain noodles (I used spirals)
2 slices of whole wheat bread 
2 tsp. Italian seasoning

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Steam broccoli according to package directions.
Cook noodles according to package directions. 
In a small food processor, add bread slices and Italian seasoning and process until you get crumbs.
In a large bowl mix broccoli, noodles and cashew cheese.When all is well coated and mixed, pour mixture into casserole dish and add breadcrumbs on top.  Bake 15-20 minutes.

Enjoy this super simple, healthy, kid friendly dinner!
