I’ve been creating so many recipes these past few days and I’m so excited to share everything with you! They are so good, ya’ll.

If you’ve been an avid follower of Orchids + Sweet Tea, then you know that I’ve shared many vegan recipes on this blog. However, this year, I chose to highlight vegan recipes for the Thanksgiving Holiday since many of you have requested food ideas.

When it comes to vegan dishes, people often get overwhelmed with the idea of creating something tasty that doesn’t make them feel like they are missing out.

Truth is—-vegan dishes aren’t entirely hard to make. You just need to remain calm and let your creative juices flow.

Of course, if you do find yourself stuck, then I’m here to help with my Vegan Archives section of the blog.

Now, let’s dig right into this recipe.

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

For the Cashew Cheese Sauce:

Add all ingredients (cashews at the bottom!) to a high-powered blender and blend until smooth, about 1-2 minutes. Set aside.

For Potatoes + Assembly:

Thinly slice potatoes using a very sharp knife, about 1/8 inches thick.

Lightly grease cast iron skillet and sprinkle the bottom with sea salt, garlic powder, and black pepper. Then arrange potatoes in a hasselback form (slightly leaned vertically like dominos when they fall in each other). Repeat until you’ve done so around the entire edge of the skillet into the center.

Now, slowly pour cashew cheese sauce over, in between, and around potatoes (getting every corner and space possible). **NOTE: Be sure that all potatoes are coated, but ensure that they are still visible on the tops by not pouring too much of the sauce; all sauce won’t be used!). Top with tomatoes.

Cover skillet with foil and bake for 60-75 minutes or until potatoes are cooked through and the fork can easily be poked through the potatoes. Remove foil, and increase oven to broil for 5 minutes or so, until tops are golden brown.

Once done, remove gratin from oven and let cool for 20-25 minutes. Sprinkle with dried parsley and scoop out portion to serve.

Bon Appetit!
