Spinach Alfredo:

  • 2.5-3 Tablespoons raw cashew flour (ground cashew)
  • 1/2 cup baby spinach (raw or blanched, or other blanched greens or omit)
  • 1/3 cup coconut milk
  • 1 garlic clove or 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

Method

Alfredo:

  1. Blend all the ingredients of the Alfredo. Taste and adjust salt.
  2. The sauce thickens during baking so I did not cook it. You can nuke it in the microwave to thicken it a bit.
  3. Grease the ramekin if you plan to remove the bake.
  4. Add a little alfredo in the ramekin. top with sliced Sweet Potatoes, overlapping so it is a continuous layer.
  5. Top with mini peppers, tomato slices, radish, and drizzle enough alfredo to cover.
  6. If using a larger ramekin, add other veggies/mushrooms and sauce layer.
  7. Top with Sweet potatoes, tomato slices, more alfredo.
  8. For the final layer, you can use breadcrumbs mixed with dried herbs(I used italian blend) and salt.
  9. Or sweet potato slices brushed with olive oil for a crunchy sweet potato top. Sprinkle some herbs and salt on top.
  10. Bake for 45-50 mins at 370 F.
  11. Serve as is warm in the ramekin. Let sit for 5-10 minutes before removing from ramekin.
