CREAMY VEGAN MAC AND CHEESE

Thanks for this delicious recipe! I made this just as you suggested, but since I hadn't soaked the cashews, I just boiled them with the vegetables. That softened them up and the blended sauce came out really creamy.

CREAMY VEGAN MAC AND CHEESE

INGREDIENTS

• 10 ounces dried macaroni (or about 2 2/3 cups)
• 1 cup peeled/diced yellow potatoes (or russets)
• 1/4 cup peeled/diced carrots
• 1/3 cup chopped onion
• 3/4 cup water (preferably use liquid from pot of boiled veggies)
• 1/2 cup raw cashews
• 1/4 cup coconut milk
• 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast flakes
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 3/4 to 1 teaspoon salt (or more to taste)
• 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 pinch cayenne pepper (optional)
• 1 pinch paprika

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Cook macaroni al dente, according to package instructions (usually requires boiling for 6-8 minutes in salted water), drain, and set aside.
2. Bring several cups of water to boil in a small pot. Place chopped potatoes, carrots, and onion in the boiling water, and cook for about 10 minutes, or until vegetables are tender and soft enough to blend. Cooking time will vary slightly, based on how small you have chopped your veggies.
