When your side dish is so nutrient packed, protein rich, and deliciously filling that it becomes your main dish instantaneously!
Don’t let this famously known creamy dreamy side dish fool you, it’s good enough to be front and center on your dinner table.
I’ve been known to make entire 5 course dinners out of, well, 5 different side dishes. This right here is no different. I originally had this all planned out as part of a Vegan Thanksgiving Dinner menu but after making it, photographing it, and eating it I’ve decided this Vegan Scalloped Potato dish deserves top billing when it comes to meal planning credits.
It comes together in basically one pan and serves up in the same casserole dish you bake it in. It’s indulgent but made with such healthy, protein packed ingredients that you dont even have to feel bad for going for seconds or making it your whole dinner.
Is there anything that tofu & cashews cant do? I’ll wait…
Here, they’ve taken on the taste, look, and feel of heavy cream, cheese, & flour. The original bad boy ingredients found in a Scalloped Potatoes dish. These healthy alternatives will make you feel so great about eating something that most people only eat on birthdays, anniversaries, and special holidays like Thanksgiving. However you, well, you can eat this on a Tuesday and leftovers again on Wednesday.
