1. Soak cashews in water for at least one hour prior to cooking.
2. Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees F. Remove cauliflower cores and chop into florets. Chop onion. Cut broccoli into pieces. Set aside.
3. Place cauliflower florets into a food processor and pulse until broken down into couscous-sized granules. Set aside.
4. In a food processor, add cashews, nutritional yeast, vinegar, garlic, salt, pepper, flaxseed, miso, lemon juice, and ½ of the almond milk and pulse until smooth and creamy.
5. In a large saucepan, add olive oil over medium heat. Add onion and let cook for 3-5 minutes, or until onions are translucent. Add flour and whisk until oil is absorbed and onions are coated, about 60 seconds. Add other half of milk and whisk until thickened, about 5 minutes. Whisk in cashew cheese until smooth and creamy.
6. Add broccoli to a 9x13-inch casserole dish. Pour cashew cheese sauce over broccoli and mix to evenly distribute. Sprinkle 1 cup “cauliflower rice” over top.
7. Bake at 350 degrees F for 30 minutes, or until cauliflower rice starts to turn golden brown and sauce is bubbling. Enjoy!
