I just poured this sauce over steamed veggies and served it with rice. But you could serve it over tempeh or tofu, chick peas whatever you feel like.

I don't have a stick blender- I'd have to cool off the pumpkin a bit, blend it with the cashews and water, and add it to the sauteed stuff. But I suppose that would work...
