Every time I make this dish, people say ...
“This is the best Mac Cheese I have ever eaten!”
“It’s pretty darn good!”, if I say so myself. Which is why I wanted to teach you how to make this awesome recipe, too!
This dish is very comforting-and-calming largely because of the magnesium in the cashews and the B Vitamins in the nutritional yeast -- truly helping you relax at the end of a long day.
Having the cashew cheese on hand (Cashew Cream Cheese Recipe) will make this a very easily-prepared nourishing meal! Accompany this with sauteed vegetables or a big dark green salad -- and give yourself tons of tasty nutrition.
Mac Cheese Ingredients:
- 1 lb cooked pasta al dente (make it a harder “al dente” as the pasta will be baked again) coated a little oil to not stick together.
- 1 lb Cashew cream cheese
- ½ cup of Nutritional Yeast
- 4 medium onion sliced thin
- 2 tbsp water
- ¼ cup olive oil or ghee*
- 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
- ½ tsp Nutmeg
- 2 cups Vegetable broth or bone broth
- Salt and pepper to taste
* Using ghee will add the familiar buttery flavor without the lactose but olive or avocado oil work beautifully, too.
Directions:
- Begin by sauteing the onions in the ghee or olive oil on med-high heat until soft, translucent and browning.
- Add 2 tbsp of water to the onions and cook-off the water.
- The onions are now ready to mix together with the rest of the ingredients.
- Thoroughly mix all the ingredients together and place in a greased baking dish.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes
- Place under the broiler for 10 minutes to create a beautiful golden brown finish.
Serves 3-5
