Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

In a large skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and sauté the diced onion until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Step 3
Add the minced garlic and diced vegan ham to the skillet and sauté for another 3 minutes, until the vegan ham is slightly browned.
Step 4
Prepare the cheese sauce by combining the nutritional yeast, unsweetened almond milk, tapioca flour, dijon mustard, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper in a blender. Blend until smooth.
Step 5
In a large mixing bowl, combine the thinly sliced potatoes and broccoli florets. Add the sautéed onion, garlic, and vegan ham mixture.
Step 6
Pour the cheese sauce over the potato and broccoli mixture. Stir well to coat all ingredients evenly.
Step 7
Transfer the mixture into a lightly greased 9x13-inch (23x33 cm) baking dish, spreading it evenly.

Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
