Step 1
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly grease a 9 x 13 inch casserole dish.
Step 2
Make the Cashew Cheese sauce: Soak the cashews in boiling hot water for at least 5 minutes. Drain the cashews and add them to a high powered blender along with the water, lemon juice, nutritional yeast, garlic, onion powder and salt. Blend until smooth, scraping the sides down as needed. Set aside.
Step 3
Prepare pasta according to package instructions. You can cook the pasta while your cashews are soaking to save time. Drain the noodles and add to casserole dish.
Step 4
Pour the marinara sauce and "meat", if using, on top of the noodles and stir to combine.
Step 5
Spoon the cashew cheese on top of noodle/sauce mixture and stir gently, leaving pockets of cheese intact.
Step 6
Sprinkle with non-dairy mozzarella cheese shreds OR about 1/2 cup of Vegan Parmesan.
Step 7
Bake, uncovered, for 25 minutes until hot throughout.
Step 8
Serve immediately and enjoy!
