VEGAN MAC AND CHEESE!

Okay you guys...this stuff is SO GOOD. like heavenly. you can BARELY even tell that it's vegan! I gave some to my dad and asked what he thought (without telling him it was vegan) and he said it was great! When i told him he was shocked! Make this with rice pasta if you want it gluten free too :)



Cheese Sauce:

1.5 cups Daiya Cheddar Cheese (you can find this in most health food stores, Whole Foods, etc)
3 tbs vegan butter (Earth Balance) or Ghee if you eat it
1 cup almond/rice/soy milk
1 tsp Nutritional Yeast (you can get this stuff at health food stores or bulk barn. not like brewer's yeast so safe for people with candida problems too! and PACKED with B vitamins :))
1/2 tsp Sea Salt (use garlic salt if you want!)
Pinch of black pepper


Heat vegan butter and almond milk in saucepan on medium heat until melted. Then add in Daiya cheese and salt/pepper/nutritional yeast. Stir until completely melted. Might have to turn up the heat to high for a bit but watch it closely so it doesn't burn!

Then add to your favourite pasta and voila! Vegan mac and cheese! SO YUMMY! :) And this is just a very simply recipe, i plan to spice things up a bit by adding some paprika, garlic, mustard (probably not all at once! haha) and seeing what i can do with this stuff!
