About

One of my mom’s regular dishes was tuna noodle casserole with white sauce. My mom was a hardworking woman, so tuna casserole was a delicious quick fix. But I have a version for you that can also be made in just a few minutes, and it’s enriched with a mix of cauliflower, cashews, and coconut milk. It makes an oh-so-creamy dairy-free pizza topping and stars in a vegan take on alfredo sauce.
