Flashback Mac and Cheese

[BalboaLust]

I made this for my mom and me for Christmas dinner and the omnis ended up eating most of it. Went back for seconds and all. I LOVE this recipe. I just wish that it didn't dry up so quickly.

If you add a little soymilk to this and reheat it on the stove, it gets really creamy again, not dry at all.  I've even added a bit of soymilk and reheated in the microwave when I take leftovers for work, and it comes out great.

Wow!  I tried the 'Best Vegan Mac and Cheese in the World...Seriously' recipe from here, and it was really good as well, but a different taste altogether in my opinion.  Not to mention, no tofu, and a lot less ingridents, and no time in the oven after all the prep.

This is my new fav recipe for veg mac n cheese.  I really needed something quick tonight and this did the trick!

I really like the creaminess of this mac 'n' cheese. I felt the nutritional yeast overpowered it just a teeny tiny bit, so I just added a couple more shakes of garlic powder and a splash more almond milk and it's totally delicious! Finally, a macaroni recipe I can eat!

This was really good!!!  I used whole wheat flour and pasta and instead of 3 tbsp of oil I used 1 1/2 tbsp veg butter.  It turned out as well as could be expected.  Recipe was great but my execution was a little off...  I got a lot of the sauce stuck to the pot...

i must've done something very wrong. because this didn't taste anything like mac 'n cheese.
it must've been the vanilla soymilk i used.
hahaha!
maybe i'll try again someday.

Wow!  This is pretty tasty.  I added a sprinkle of paprika to my bowl )

Hands down the best and easiest "cheese" sauce recipe! I've made it dozens of times. It's great with pasta, but it's also delicious with chili beans mixed in for a chili cheese dip, slathered on a piece of toast for not-so-grilled cheese (especially yummy on rye!), et cetera! So many uses. It's a great comfort food.

Also, in my experience, the ingredients can just be poured into the sauce pan on the stove directly, mixed together, and then heated to the desired consistency. I've never noticed a difference in taste doing it this way, but it sure saves me time and bowls!

Oops, forgot to add to my review above that it's great with whole wheat flour! Just slightly nuttier. And I've left out the onion powder a few times (I run out often) and couldn't notice a change in taste.

After the first few times, I started doing that too!  It's just easier to throw it all in at once and mix it up, and doesn't change the end product any.  This sauce is the best ever!  It also goes great over steamed veggies, like broccoli and cauliflower.   And it's great for nachos, with salsa added in.  It's just all around great.

This was pretty good. It didn't taste like the regular mac n cheese but it was good, definitely. My non-Vegan wife absolutely loved it. I will make this again, absolutely.

Really great recipe. I altered it though. I used a dab of mustard, a splash of shoyu, turmeric, garlic salt, ground pepper, extra salt, extra nutritional yeast, more almond milk, earth balance butter instead of oil, and a dash of chili powder. I couldn't tell you measurements. I heated the wet ingredients in a pot to just before boiling. I slowly added the dry ingredients and stirred with a whisk. I didn't use all of the dry ingredients. It was just making it too thick. Great! My omnivore daughter enjoyed it as well.

i always end up with a ton extra, so now i save the mixed up dry ingredients in a container and use as much as needed for the meal.  it saves me time because it's like instant cheesey sauce... just add butter, almond milk, and broth!

i've got this basic recipe memorized now since i've made it so much.  i probably do different proportions by now, but it's still awesome!

I have yet to make this but it looks sooo delicious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I've been looking for the perfect vegan mac n cheese forever!
Review to come soon

I made a third of the cheese sauce and poured it over my ramen for some ghetto mac.
