[recipe] Baked Macaroni and Cheese ala vegan

[Guest guest]

Here is a recipes for a vegan version that i found

on the web. It says to use soymage brand, but i

haven't found that brand in my area yet. Maybe

you can find that or try some other vegan cheese

brand.

Also many of our vegan members have highly

recommended the uncheese cookbook by Jo Stepaniak:

Macaroni & " Cheese " (a genuine imitation)

 

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

 

* 2 cup macaroni

* 1 tablespoon soy non-hydrogenated vegan margarine

* 1 tablespoon flour

* 3 cup vegan soymilk

* 4 oz. Soymage cheddar cheese substitute

(Important! Must use Soymage!)

* 1 small clove garlic, minced

* 1 medium onion, chopped

* 1 tablespoon minced parsley

* 1 teaspoon salt

* 1 teaspoon white pepper

* paprika

Directions:

 

 

Cook pasta until barely tender; drain and set aside.

 

Melt margarine in a saucepan and add flour.

Slowly add the soy milk, constantly whisking

the mixture. If the consistency is not thick

enough, slowly sprinkle in some flour, starting

with 1/2 T and adding more if necessary.

Meanwhile, continue whisking. Add cheese,

garlic, onion, parsley, salt, and pepper. Whisk

until sauce is thick and smooth.

 

Combine sauce and pasta, and sprinkle with

paprika. Bake at 375 degrees in a greased

casserole dish for at least 30 minutes. I like a

nicely golden crust, so I bake it for a bit longer.

Yum.

 

Note: I never use a recipe for this dish, so the

ingredient amounts might be a little off.

Adjust as necessary. I've tried endlessly to

find a good vegan cheese substitute for

macaroni and cheese, and Soymage is the best.

This dish is much better than those recipes

with nutritional yeast, and any ex-mac & cheese

afficionado vegan will definitely be satisfied!

 

Serves: 2-4

 

Preparation time: 1/2 hr. + baking time
