We had some potatoes to use up, and we are SO happy with what we did with them. We created this super delicious and comforting Vegan Cheesy Veggie Potatoes recipe.

When we were cooking this dish the plan was just to have the vegetable, potato, and spice mixture on its own. I think that’d be a pretty fine idea, personally. But while we had the veggies in the oven, and a beer was being enjoyed, we thought “hmm maybe we should add a cheesy sauce to it!” We were pretty glad we did make the sauce, because it turned out PERFECTLY!

Cooking this dish is actually not hard at all. It takes a little bit of work to wash and cut all of the vegetables. Once that’s out of the way it’s easy-peasy. You just have to toss the vegetables and spices together in a large bowl, and then place them into a baking dish, where they’ll cook for about 1 hour.

While the veggies are baking we make our cheesy sauce. It’s a simple sauce, but it’s so good. It’s super easy to make. After the sauce is thickened, we just take the veggies out of the oven, and stir the sauce in. Place the veggies back and let it all cook together and then enjoy .
