In this comforting vegan mac and cheese, a smooth purée of vegetables, soaked cashews, nutritional yeast (for cheesy flavor), and turmeric (for cheesy color) coats the pasta in a golden, creamy, dairy-free sauce. Any leftover sauce will keep in the refrigerator for up to a week. The sauce can also be made ahead and frozen for fast weeknight meals—simply thaw and re-blend before using. Craving a crunchy topping? Simply spread the prepared mac and cheese in a casserole dish, sprinkle breadcrumbs over the, and broil in the oven until brown and crispy.
