  2. Peel and thinly slice the potatoes and zucchini, and lay them out to prevent browning.
  3. Heat olive oil in a skillet and sauté onion and mushrooms for 4-5 minutes until translucent.
  4. Blend soaked cashews, vegetable broth, non-dairy milk, salt, and nutritional yeast until smooth.
  5. Layer half of the potato and zucchini slices in the baking dish, pour half of the cashew sauce, and add sautéed onions and mushrooms.
  6. Repeat layering with the remaining potatoes, zucchini, and cashew sauce, pressing down gently.
  7. Cover with foil and bake for 50 minutes or until potatoes are fork-tender.
  8. Add vegan cheese for the last 5-10 minutes of baking for added creaminess.
  9. Garnish with fresh chives and toasted pine nuts before serving.
