  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Dash sea salt

For the Vegan Cheese Sauce:

Instructions

For the Potatoes:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees fahrenheit.
  • Scrub your potatoes well, poke with a fork multiple times on all sides, and place on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil. Bake for 25 minutes. Remove potatoes from the oven, brush on all sides with oil and sprinkle with salt. Place potato back on the baking sheet with the opposite side up so that both sides cook evenly. Return to oven and bake for another 20 minutes or until fork tender.

For the Vegan Cheese Sauce:

  • Peel carrots and slice 1/3 inch thick. Add 1" of water to a saucepan and add steamer basket. Place carrots in steamer basket and cover pot. Cook 7-8 minutes or until carrots are fork tender.
  • To make the cheese sauce, add the steamed carrots, cashews, broth, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, soy sauce, salt and pepper to a food processor or blender cup and puree until smooth.

Broccoli and Bacon:

  • In the same steamer basket used for the carrots, add the broccoli and cook 3-4 minutes or until crisp-tender.
  • Spray a skillet with cooking spray and add the chopped veggie bacon. Cook until dark brown and crispy, about 3 minutes.
  • To assemble, cut down the middle of each potato and squeeze to open. Stuff with broccoli, drizzle with cheese sauce, and sprinkle with veggie bacon.
