Vegan Mac and Cheese
Super excited to share this cheezy mac with you all. BTW, I took down the previous mac and cheese recipe because this one turned out so much better!
The ingredients are simple and easy to gather. I used nutritional yeast powder but the flakes will work just as well.
I’m using vegan cheddar cheeze from Soft Spots, a local plant-based food company (not sponsored). Tastes really good!
To make this recipe gluten-free, you can use zero-gluten elbows like this chickpea elbows, or this green lentil elbows.
I haven’t tried them yet, but have heard many good things about them.
The cooking is super easy – assemble all the ingredients and gently boil over low-medium heat. Add vegan cheese, cook a bit more…and you’re done! 🙂
Let’s get into it!

Have a great day!
After going vegan, the only thing I’ve missed more than anything was Mac n cheese.
I have tried the steamed potatoes and carrots one but wasn’t satisfied with the taste and the texture of the outcome.
I have tried your mac n cheese version and I must say that it’s the closest to the Mac n cheese that I used to have as a non vegan.
The taste , the texture, the creaminess and the chessyness is on point. Have made this multiple times now, for friends too and they always compliment me for it.
Thanks a lot to you guys for bringing such an easy vegan Mac n cheese recipe .
