Until now.

It’s easy, ready in 20 minutes, your family will love it, and no one will miss the empty calories. Rather than multiple sticks of butter, eggs, and heavy cream, there’s only one stick of butter and I used Silk Unsweetened Cashewmilk.

It’s so irresistibly creamy and thick but with fewer calories than skim milk. I also used it in Easy 30-Minute Stovetop Macaroni and Cheese. Eating more plant-based protein is a great goal and Silk Cashewmilk or Silk Almond Milk are my milks of choice for baking and smoothies. They’re so low in calories and fat, they’re vegan and dairy-free, andI always get impressive-tasting results. It’s the perfect match between tasty and guilt-free.

The recipe halves easily but I make it as written and freeze leftovers in single-serve portions and can pull them out and re-heat at a moment’s notice for impromptu school lunches or planned-leftover-dinners.
