Quick Plant-Based Cashew Cheese Sauce

1. Soak 2 cups of cashews in water until soft. This is key for a smooth blend. 
2. Drain and rinse the soaked cashews. 
3. Combine the drained cashews in a blender with 1 1/2 cups of water, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon chili powder, 1/2 teaspoon paprika, 1/2 teaspoon sea salt, and 1/4 cup nutritional yeast. 
4. Blend on high until the sauce is completely smooth. 
5. Add more water if you desire a thinner consistency. 
6. Serve the cashew cheese sauce over leftover Trader Joe's cauliflower gnocchi and broccoli. To reheat the gnocchi, simply toss it in a skillet until warmed through.
