ADD blended cashew mixture to the kettle of boiling vegetables, stir until thickened. This only takes about 1 minute to thicken.
ADD any type of vegan meat substitute if you want.
ADD 1/2 cup dairy free sour cream ( RECIPE BELOW) or use Toffuti or other commercial brand dairy free Sour Cream
SERVE over gluten free noodles, rice or baked potatoes. This sauce is rich, creamy and very satisfying!
