VEGAN MAC'N CHEESE
As you might know Kässpätzle is a very popular dish in german speaking countries and one might suggest that in English-speaking countries Mac'n Cheese is the equivilant to that. I only had Mac'n Cheese a couple of times before going vegan, and it always was the instant Mac'n Cheese kind. Nevertheless it tasted awesome and as a former cheese enthusiast I enjoyed this cheesy goodness a lot. Upon turning vegan I didn't really think about making Mac'n Cheese at home as the vegan cheese options back then were very limited and I just knew it wouldn't be good. However especially in the vegan community, it seems to be an unspoken quest to find the perfect vegan mac'n cheese recipe, someway or the other and therefore the number of vegan Mac'n Cheese recipes is growing. Of course, we wanted to contribute our own Mac'n Cheese recipe to this cause and since vegan cheese got better and better and more options started to show up in supermarkets almost daily, we figured it was about time.
Unlike many other recipes, we use grated vegan cheese in addition to yeast flakes and turmeric. Of course, you can also make the whole thing without bought vegan cheese. I recommend the recipe for the Mac'n Cheese Instant Mix from Schoolnightvegan, which is great if you're in a hurry and want to fix yourself a portion of instant mac'n cheese. Nevertheless, I find that the macaroni get an extra punch of flavour through the vegan cheese and are extra delicious. Finally, we like to add butter crumbs over our mac 'n cheese to make it clear as day that this isn't a healthy side dish, but a hefty one.
We hope you'll enjoy the recipe. Let us know what you think about it and how you like to prepare your Mac'n Cheese.
