Indulge in a creamy, dreamy plant-based twist on a classic comfort food! This healthy Vegan Mac and Cheese is packed with fiber and nutrients, using wholesome vegetables for its rich, cheesy sauce. Perfect for a satisfying, guilt-free meal that's easy to make.
Preparation
1
Prepare vegetables by peeling and dicing the potatoes and carrots into small, even pieces.
2
Boil a pot of salted water and cook the macaroni according to package directions until al dente. Drain the cooked macaroni and set it aside.
3
In a separate pot, boil the diced potatoes and carrots in water until they are very tender, which usually takes about 10-15 minutes. Drain the cooked vegetables thoroughly.
4
Transfer the tender potatoes and carrots to a blender. Add the unsweetened almond milk, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy. If the sauce seems too thick, you can add a little more almond milk, one tablespoon at a time, until you achieve your desired consistency.
5
Pour the smooth, cheesy sauce over the drained macaroni in the pot. Stir well to ensure all the pasta is evenly coated with the sauce.
6
Serve immediately and enjoy your healthy, homemade vegan mac and cheese.
