Chef Notes
To keep raw greens fresh on top, add half before baking and half afterwards.
Try adding sautéed mushrooms or roasted cauliflower for a heartier version.
Almonds or sunflower seeds can replace cashews for variation.
For a hint of brightness, drizzle with a squeeze of lemon before serving.
Make mini versions on whole-grain flatbreads for gatherings.
