Bake for 30 minutes or until the sauce is bubbling and the top is golden brown. Spread the mixture into an un-greased 11 x 8 casserole dish, sprinkle with prepared breadcrumb mixture. Pour the “cheese” sauce over the cooked pasta and combine until completely coated.Add the softened vegetables and cooking water to the blender or food processor and process until perfectly smooth. Place the cashews, salt, garlic, 5 Tablespoons butter, mustard, lemon juice, black pepper, and cayenne in a blender or food processor.Put the bread pieces, 1 Tablespoon of butter and paprika in a food processor fitted with a metal blade and process until combined to a medium-fine texture, set aside.Cook the pasta in salted water until al dente, drain and put back into the pot.In the meantime, preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Lower to a simmer and cook, covered, for 15 minutes, or until vegetables are very soft. In a medium saucepan, add the shallots, potatoes, carrots, onion and water and bring to a boil.(See above.) I’m sure broccoli and kale would be great, too! Can you see how much fun we are going to have with this?!! I have also tried this with brown rice pasta and a corn-quinoa pasta - both super! Once I threw some small cauliflower florets into the pasta pot two minutes before the pasta was done and made a cauliflower mac and cheese. My family much prefers the light spelt pasta with this sauce, but you should use whatever suits you. Some of the images on this post were taken of light spelt macaroni and some of whole spelt macaroni. Anytime I have guesstimated an amount with this recipe, it hasn’t worked quite as well, especially with ingredients like cayenne, lemon juice (you can leave this out, but just don’t add more than indicated) and garlic. The only trick with this recipe is that you have to follow it exactly! No eyeballing measurements. Completely digestible (unless you are nut-free, in which case I am so sorry. It is made from potatoes, cashews, carrots, onions and a bunch of other completely natural foods blended into creamy, cheesy deliciousness.
We are talking about a life-changing delicious not-cheese sauce. We are not just talking about a mac and cheese recipe. Same vegan cheese sauce! Do you see the potential here? What about as a dip for steamed veggies? I might even make a soup out of this. That’s the same sauce for this! You may have also seen a strange looking bowl of yellow stuff on my baked potato bar. You may have seen on a month ago a picture I posted of “vegan nachos” I made for the kids. I think it’s better than mac and cheese and he likes it because he has watched me make it and is confident there is not a morsel of cheese, real or fake, anywhere in this dish. Picky who still doesn’t like cheese except Pecorino Romano in some soups and on pizza crust, this mac and cheese is the bomb.
Are you with me? Well, according to myself and according to Mr. It’s now the 21st century, and we’re both eating differently and I am open minded to alternative recipes.Īlthough open minded or not, I’ve always felt if I’m not going to like the real deal, why would I like something pretending to be the real deal? And most vegan mac and cheese recipes call for fake processed cheese or nutritional yeast and they’re just not that tasty, in my opinion.
Tons of butter, cheddar cheese, milk, stomach ache for me. I used to have to make him the famous “Ronald Reagan’s favorite mac and cheese” recipe all the time when we first got married. And sad for my husband who looooooves it. Not the boxed kind and not even the homemade kind. If someone tried to coax me a year ago with a “vegan mac and cheese” recipe, I would have politely said, “no, thank you.” First of all, I actually don’t really like mac and cheese.
