Miso Mac’n’Cheese Vegan
A deliciously hearty dish to cheer you up this gloomy Monday morning!
Mac’n’cheese is an absolute classic and now so many great vegan alternatives exist also. There’s something so satisfying about changing up a classic which is exactly what I did here with the Miso addition too! I absolutely love the underlying tones of creamy cashew whenever I want a vegan cheese alternative and this recipe incorporates just that. You also don’t have to worry about soaking them to soften them up- just ensure you blend really really well and have the sauce simmering away for a good 10-15 minutes once it’s all combined. This recipe makes 2 which is convenient for so many ways, especially if you like making your lunch to take to work/ Uni the next day (which Is exactly what I did the first time I made it). It also features my favourite Vegan brown rice pasta brand of all, Rizopia, but you already know that by this point.
Give this simple yet delicious twist on a classic favourite a go and let me know what you think!
