Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C), channel your inner kitchen goddess.
Lightly grease your baking dish, because we don’t do sticky messes.

Whisk almond milk, arrowroot, nutritional yeast, salt, pepper, and seasoning in a bowl until smooth.
Pour the mixture into the skillet and stir until thick and dreamy.
Add sliced zucchini into the sauce and coat gently—don’t bruise the diva.
