Cheesy Veggie Rice Casserole



 Above you will see this casserole being assembled - before baking - without the 'sauce'.
In the above you will see:
Broccoli
Yellow & Red Bell Peppers
Celery
Chickpeas
Basmati Rice
Slivered Almonds
(tossed in some Wildtree Onion & Chive and Garlic Galore)

Here you can see it after I combined everything and baked it.

What I did for the 'cheesy sauce' was the following...

1 1/4 C Soy Milk
1/2 C Nutritional Yeast
2-3 teas Cornstarch
Splash of Lemon Juice
1 teas Wildtree Onion & Chive Blend
Squirt of Mustard
Pinch Cayenne Pepper
1 T Tahini
Wildtree Lemon Pepper to Taste

I made this to lunches and will certainly try it this way - be itself - first - but might add some or all of the following for the left overs or future batches:

Tofu
Tempeh Bacon
Crumbles
Corn and/or Peas

I was also thinking about using as a filling for pitas and wraps, possibly.
