#CASHEW MAC AND CHEESE VEGAN HOW TO#
Here's step by step instructions and photos for how to make this vegan macaroni and cheese without using cashews, flour, vegan butter or other nuts and seeds to make the sauce.

Apple cider vinegar - adds brightness and a hint of tang.Smoked paprika - adds smokiness and depth of flavor, but don't overdo it.Taste and then adjust or add another option. Here are some optional, but highly recommended, flavor boosters that can take the sauce to the next level. Ground turmeric - the ground turmeric contributes health benefits and aids in the bright orange faux-velveeta color of this sauce.Find nutritional yeast at Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, Amazon or in the bulk bin of your local health food or well-stocked grocery store. Use more to amp up the cheesiness! Some people prefer the flavor of unfortified nutritional yeast (aka nooch), but we like the taste of the fortified nooch just fine. Nutritional yeast - The nutritional yeast gives it the cheesy, umami flavor.Be sure it's plain, unsweetened, unflavored milk. I use almond milk, but to make this completely nut-free, use soy milk or oat milk. Plant-based milk - The almond milk adds to the creaminess and is needed to thin the mixture in the blender.Onion and garlic - The onion and garlic are for aromatic flavor.Carrots - The carrots give the sauce a hint of sweetness and add to the color and nutritional value.Potatoes - The starch in the potatoes make this sauce rich, silky and creamy without the need for nuts or seeds.Besides macaroni, you could also try rotini, shells, ditalini, penne or farfalle. You can use standard pasta, whole wheat pasta, gluten-free pasta or any kind you like. Macaroni pasta - Use your favorite macaroni or small pasta.The plant-based, vegan cheese sauce is made without cashews using: Just start with my silky, rich fauxveeta vegan cheese sauce. Potatoes, carrots with a few spices produce an incredible and easy to make hidden vegetable pasta sauce that your kids will devour. You also don't need flour or vegan butter. You don't need cashews or nuts of any kind to make a rich, creamy dairy-free vegan mac and cheese. Decadent and gooey, an easy dairy-free substitute for velveeta mac and cheese.
