Instructions

For the "cheese"

  • Place the cashews in a bowl of water and let soak for ideally at least 2 hours. If you do not have time to allow them to soak-place the cashews in the microwave with water for 1 minute. Once the cashews are ready, drain them. Place all cashew ingredients in the food processor and blend for 3-4 minutes until a nacho cheese sauce forms. (Note, depending on the intensity of your blender, you may need more or less time.
    If you are making the AIP cheese-place all ingredients in the food processor and blend until smooth.

For the meat & potatoes:

  • Preheat the oven to 350. Spray the broccoli and sweet potatoes (if you are using them) on a sheet pan and spray with cooking oil. Bake the sweet potatoes for 30 minutes and the broccoli for 20 minutes. Now, add the ghee to a pan on the stovetop- saute the onions then add in the ground beef. Add in the steak sauce and garlic powder. Cook until the beef is no longer pink. When the sweet potatoes or broccoli & cheese are done, add the beef mixture , pickles, bacon and cashew cheese to the casserole dish. Make sure to mix up. Bake for 15 minutes.

For the sauce:

  • Place all ingredients in a bowl and whisk together.
    If you are making AIP sauce, add all ingredients to your blender and blend until smooth.
