Topping
In a large pot, bring 10 cups of water to a rolling boil. Add the pasta and bring heat down to medium and allow to simmer until pasta is al dente. While pasta is cooking, in a medium pot melt the Earth Balance over medium heat until bubbly and add the onions. Cook until onions are softened, about 8 minutes. Add the mustard, salt, paprika, hot sauce and peppers and cook until fragrant about 30 seconds. Add the cauliflower, almond milk and red pepper to the pot and bring to boil. Allow to simmer for about 15 minutes until cauliflower is fully cooked.
Take pot off heat and stir in yeast. Transfer mixture to a high power blender or food processor and blend until very smooth. You should have about 7 cups of sauce. Remove one cup of sauce from the food processor and set aside. Butter a 13×9 Pyrex pan and preheat oven to 375 degrees. Drain the pasta and spread out on a paper towel lined baking sheet. Water is the enemy of any creamy sauce so dry the pasta.
In a very large bowl combine the sauce, pasta and cooked broccoli. With a spatula gently coat the pasta and broccoli with the sauce until well coated. Transfer to the Pyrex pan and spread evenly.
In a small bowl mix the panko topping until combined. Sprinkle on top of the pasta and bake for 15 minutes until the panko is golden brown.
Let cool for about 5 minutes and transfer to a serving plate with a flipper.

P.S. Ok why the extra cup on the side? I found that the whole 7 cups was too wet for the pasta and yes you can increase the pasta but I didn’t want you to have to buy two pounds when using so little of the second. However an extra cup of cheese sauce in the fridge? Heck yes. Put on steamed broccoli, corn chips or whatever you like.
