Ingredients

    For the roasted potatoes:
    1 1/2 lbs red potatoes, diced 1/2 inch
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    3/4 teaspoon sea salt
    1 small onion, diced
    2 cloves garlic, minced
    1 teaspoon ground cumin
    Zest and juice of 1 lime

    For the faux cheese sauce:
    1 cup unroasted cashews, soaked in water for at least 2 hours, drained
    1 cup vegetable broth
    2 tablespoons mellow white miso
    1 teaspoon onion powder
    1/2 teaspoon turmeric or yellow mustard

    For the avocado salsa:
    1 large tomato, diced
    1/4 cup diced red onion
    1 jalapeno, seeded and thinly sliced into thin rings
    1/4 cup chopped cilantro
    Zest and juice of 1 lime
    Pinch sea salt
    1 avocado, diced medium

    1 1/2 cups cooked black beans (a 15-oz can, rinsed and drained)
    1 small can of sliced black California olives
    6 corn tortillas(5") cut into triangles and toasted
    Fresh cilantro for garnish

Tips

Eat with a side of fresh, seasonal fruit and have just half of a serving to further reduce calories. Add a layer of scrambled tofu, if you prefer.


Directions

Roast the potatoes:
Preheat oven to 425 F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.

On the prepared baking sheet, toss the potatoes, garlic, and diced onions with olive oil, cumin, lime zest, lime juice, and salt. Cook for about 30 minutes, tossing once or twice, until golden and tender. Remove from oven and set on a cooling rack until ready to use.

Make the cheezy sauce:
Puree everything in a blender until absolutely smooth, scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula occasionally. This could take 2 to 5 minutes, depending on your blender. Remember to give the motor a rest every minute or so.

Make the avocado salsa:
In a medium mixing bowl, mix together all of the ingredients except for the avocado. Mix well and let sit for 5 minutes or so to get the tomatoes to release some juice and for the flavors to marry. Fold in the avocado.

Assemble:
Layer the potatoes, beans, sauce, and salsa. Garnish with olives and cilantro. Serve tortilla triangles on the side so they won't get soggy.
