I am loving my one-bowl tasty creation of Macaroni in Minced Meat Cashew Nut Sauce.  I know there are many of us who like the look of Mac and Cheese. We either cannot find cheese or are intolerant to dairy so here is an alternative. When I think of something interesting for dinner then here it is. Cooking with cashew nut has opened up so many interesting dishes. The creaminess of cashew makes it interesting in making local soups, snacks, desserts and so on.

Today it’s just simply using cashew nut as creamer for this pasta sauce. The nutty flavor, slightly sweet taste and nutritional value of cashew nut makes this dish interesting. Here is how I made this dish .
