THE BEST VEGAN MACARONI AND CHEESE EVER



The Best Vegan Macaroni and Cheese Ever image

I found this recipe over at vegweb.com but I am typing it up here so I can use the easy conversions and see the nutritional information. It received so many positive comments that I have to try it. One of the only complaints is that it can be very salty, so you might want to consider cutting back on the soy sauce or not adding additional salt.

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 cups plain soymilk

1 1/2 cups nutritional yeast

1 cup canola oil
1 1/2 lbs macaroni noodles
2 teaspoons mustard (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.

  • Bake until the top of the pasta looks slightly browned and crispy about 15 minutes.

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup raw cashews
1 pound russet potatoes (about 3 medium), scrubbed and roughly chopped
3 ounces carrot (1 medium), scrubbed and roughly chopped
Salt
10 ounces elbow macaroni (about 2 ½ cups)
10 ounces poblano (or pasilla) peppers (2 medium)
1 medium jalapeño (optional)
1/3 cup nutritional yeast

Steps:

  • Add the cashews to a small bowl and cover with hot tap water to soak for 20 minutes. Drain and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, combine the potatoes and carrot in a medium pot with 4 cups water, salt liberally, and bring to a boil over medium heat. Cook until the vegetables are fork-tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Reserve 1½ cups of the cooking liquid, then drain.
  • While the potatoes and carrots cook, bring 8 cups water in a medium pot to a boil over high. Salt liberally, add the elbow pasta and cook until al dente according to package directions. Drain and return to the pot.
  • While the potatoes and pasta cook, char the chiles: Place the poblano chiles and jalapeño, if using, directly on the grate of a gas burner and turn the heat to high. Cook, using heatproof tongs to turn the chiles so they blister and blacken on all sides, 8 to 10 minutes. Set aside to cool. Remove the stems and seeds and discard, then slice the chiles and set aside a few for garnish.
  • Working in batches if necessary, blend the potatoes, carrot, cashews, chiles, nutritional yeast and the reserved potato cooking water until smooth. Taste and season with salt. Add the sauce to the pasta and stir to coat. Turn the heat to low and let sit for about 5 minutes so the pasta absorbs some of the sauce. Serve hot, garnished with the reserved chiles.

VEGAN BAKED MACARONI AND CHEESE



Vegan Baked Macaroni and Cheese image

This is a delicious baked pasta recipe that both my husband (who can eat cow's milk) and I (who can't) enjoy very much. As you make this, keep in mind that, while it's similar in appearance to mac and cheese, it's fairly different in taste and texture. I don't think there's any way to replicate the creamy mouthfeel and stretch of dairy cheese. However, this is the closest-to-dairy homemade non-dairy mac and cheese we've come across, and it's also very yummy in its own right. This recipe comes from Joanne Stepaniak's The Ultimate Uncheese Cookbook, a wonderful source for dairy-free recipes.
