Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Cook macaroni according to package directions until al dente.
• Drain macaroni and pour into baking dish that's been lightly sprayed with non-stick cooking spray.
• Add soy cheese, Egg Beaters, soy milk, salt and pepper; mix thoroughly.
• Dot with margarine and sprinkle with breadcrumbs and/or soy parmesan (I also sprinkle this with garlic powder sometimes to give it a little zip!).

• NOTE: Some soy cheeses (including Veggie Shreds) contain casein, a milk protein; to make this recipe completely dairy-free you would need to buy a vegan brand.
• I'm usually pretty liberal with the cheese; I probably use more like 2 1/4 cups!
