The Best Vegan Mac You Will Ever Have Food

THE BEST VEGAN MACARONI AND CHEESE EVER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Boil water in a big pot for the pasta.
• All of the ingredients sans pasta can easily go in a blender (liquid and powdered) -- this is by far the easiest way.
• Once pasta is cooked, drain and put it in the baking pan pour the cheese sauce over the pasta.
• Bake until the top of the pasta looks slightly browned and crispy about 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat non-dairy butter in a 10-inch non-stick saucepan over high heat. Pour in water when butter has completely melted. Add pasta, reserving included sauce packet. Bring to a boil; let boil until most of the water has evaporated, about 5 minutes. Pour in soy milk; reduce heat to medium-low.
• Stir in reserved macaroni sauce packet rapidly using a whisk to mix smoothly. Let simmer until thickened, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Mix in vegan cheese, non-dairy yogurt, lemon juice, and salt. Stir until cheese has melted and mixture is thoroughly combined.

EASY VEGAN MAC AND CHEESE

Steps:

• Fill a medium saucepan a little more than halfway full with water, add a pinch of salt, and bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, add pasta and cook according to package instructions until just al dente (ours took 9 minutes). Be careful not to overcook because the shells will cook a bit longer with the cheese sauce after draining.
• Drain pasta (we avoided using a colander by using our saucepan lid, which has a draining feature - if yours doesn't, drain in a colander as needed, then add back to saucepan).
• Immediately add the vegan cheddar cheese, almond milk (starting with lesser amount), salt, and nutritional yeast. Stir and cook over low heat, stirring frequently until the sauce melts, becomes gooey, and coats the shells. If the cheddar isn't melting, cover to encourage it along.
• Remove from heat and serve immediately. Option to garnish with vegan parmesan cheese and red pepper flakes.
• Store cooled leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 1-2 days (not freezer friendly). Reheat in the microwave or on the stovetop over medium-low heat until hot, adding more dairy-free milk as needed to thin.
