  • Combine breadcrumbs, parsley and oil in a small bowl. Set aside.

  • Add cauliflower, squash and cashews to the boiling water; cook, stirring occasionally, until the cauliflower is very tender, about 15 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the cauliflower, squash and cashews to a blender.

  • Add pasta to the boiling water and cook according to package directions, stirring occasionally. Drain and return to the pot.

  • Add broth, nutritional yeast, mustard, vinegar, garlic powder, onion powder and salt to the blender; puree until smooth. Add the sauce to the pasta and stir until well coated. Transfer to an 8-inch baking dish and top with the reserved breadcrumb mixture.

  • Bake until heated through, 20 to 25 minutes.

Tips

To make ahead: Prepare through Step 5. Refrigerate for up to 2 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator, if necessary, then bake for 35 to 45 minutes.
