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.

Time 8m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 cups plain soymilk
1 cup water
1/3 cup tamari or 1/3 cup soy sauce
1 1/2 cups nutritional yeast
1 tablespoon paprika
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon salt
3 ounces firm tofu
1 cup canola oil
1 1/2 lbs macaroni noodles
2 teaspoons mustard (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Boil water in a big pot for the pasta.
  • All of the ingredients sans pasta can easily go in a blender (liquid and powdered) -- this is by far the easiest way.

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