Best Creamy Dairy Free Stove Top Mac And Cheese Recipes
CREAMY MAC AND CHEESE GLUTEN FREE, DAIRY FREE (STOVE-TOP RECIPE)
I could not believe how unbelievable this macaroni and cheese recipe is! It looked just like mac and cheese out of a box (which is what my dd knew and loved) and tasted great. As someone who eats dairy regularly, nothing beats the original. But I have to admit that I would be willing to eat this stuff on its own, it tastes that good, but only if I acknowledge it as pasta in sauce, not as mac and cheese per se. But my dd hasn't had cheese in over a year, and she thinks this stuff is manna from heaven. Takes only about 20 minutes to prepare--and all on the stove! Gluten free, soy free, dairy free, casein free, etc. Heck, it's even a vegan recipe if you get the right noodles! Please leave feedback and advice on any variations. Thanks!

Steps:
- Prepare pasta according to box directions. (I prefer Ancient Quinoa Harvest gluten free pasta--that stuff tastes better than real wheat pasta.).
- Either in a separate pot, or in the same pot (once you remove and drain the pasta), make a roux by melting the margarine and then whisking in the potato/corn/tapioca starch until well blended and you have a thick paste. Use a medium-low flame and work quickly.
- Add the non-dairy creamer and the almond/rice milk. Continue to whisk to blend well on medium heat. You should have a nice white sauce.
- Add the Daiya cheese. Stir until completely melted (no lumps). This may take longer than expected--Daiya cheese takes much longer to melt entirely than real cheese.
- Add the rest of the spices and stir. If you have any other mac & cheese variations, add those ingredients now. If the sauce is too thick, add more milk or creamer; if it's too thin, add more starch (slowly and sparingly).
- When the sauce is at the desired consistency, pour in your pasta and coat with the sauce. Serve hot! To reheat leftovers, you may need to add more liquid and reheat on the stove since the "cheese sauce" tends to congeal thickly when cooled.
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the shells and cook 1 minute less than package directions. Drain and set aside.
- For the dairy-free Parmesan: In the bowl of a food processor, add the cashews, nutritional yeast, garlic powder and salt. Pulse until the consistency is a fine crumb. It will resemble freshly grated Parmesan.
- For the vegan cheese sauce: In a large heavy-bottomed Dutch oven over medium heat, add the olive oil. Add the garlic and sweat for a minute or 2, until aromatic. Whisk in the flour until a sandy mixture forms. Slowly whisk in the cashew milk and allow the mixture to come to a simmer. Cook while whisking constantly until thickened, 3 minutes. Whisk in the Dairy-Free Parmesan and hot sauce and season with salt and pepper. Stir in the pasta and taste for seasoning. Serve.
