- Hi everyone! I hope you enjoy this rendition of creamy mac and cheese that’s vegan and ACTUALLY GOOD FOR YOU. If someone told me it was possible to make macaroni and cheese that tastes good and is healthy I wouldn’t believe it, but it’s true! Let me know if you try this recipe out at home yourself! If you have any questions, feel free to leave them in the comment section below. Enjoy!
Ingredients:
12 ounces dry macaroni noodles or your favorite pasta noodles (I used red lentil pasta but you can use traditional macaroni noodles or make it healthier with rice noodles, black bean noodles, or quinoa noodles)
1 small sweet potato or yam
1 carrot
1 small onion
3/4 - 1 cup water (I used the leftover water from the boiled vegetables; start with less water and add more if your sauce is too thick)
½ cup raw cashews (soaked in purified water for a minimum of 20-30 minutes)
¼ cup coconut milk
2 - 3 tablespoons nutritional yeast flakes
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 - 2 teaspoon sea salt (or more to taste)
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
1 pinch cayenne pepper (more to taste)
1 pinch paprika
Equipment:
Medium Saucepan
Medium Pot
Spoon
Slotted Spoon
Blender
Directions:
Peel and lightly chop vegetables.
Bring several cups of water to boil in a saucepan.
Place sweet potatoes, carrots, and onion in the boiling water, and cook until tender and soft, about ten minutes.
When veggies are soft enough to blend, remove them from the water using a slotted spoon and place them directly in your blender. Add ¾ cup of that cooking water to your blender, along with your remaining ingredients. Make sure to strain your cashews before adding them. Blend mixture until smooth. Pour sauce over your cooked macaroni noodles, season with additional salt and paprika to taste if necessary, and serve immediately.

this looks so creamy and "cheesy", even though I am not a vegan I just hate how unhealthy a mac and cheese can be. This looks like the best of both words, healthy and delicious
Hey Julia, I am still cooking this! 5 years later! And my kids looooove it. So thank you!
omg, I just made this and I didn’t expect it to be THIS good. it’s so flavourful and delicious, I’m obsessed!! this is gonna be a permanent recipe in rotation for me 😁✨
Trida Simone happy you liked it!!!
What did I taste like?
It* :)
This is perfect! I made this the other night and added sautéed mushrooms & broccolini to the pasta / “cheese” sauce. Super healthy and reheated pretty well the following day for lunch at work :) thanks for the great recipes!
looks yummy! will have to try for sure!
💘💘💘
oh my god I am positively drooling! and I do love mac and cheese, any variation. I have never tried it vegan style before but this looks so easy!
This one looks so good! I’ve been looking for a new recipe that’s healthy, so thank you! This is the first one I’ve see that uses a sweet potato, which I’m very excited to try.
Anche questa è un ottima idea da provare! Grazie!😋👍🤗
This is a fabulous recipe! My daughter loves this it’s easy and freaking delicious
SO COOL!!!
perfect !
IVE BEEN WAITING YOU MONSTER 💕
I need to try this omg, I hate veggies but my mom use to puré them and put them in some crazy dishes (spinach brownies, cauliflower mashed potatoes, etc.) and they were amazing. I know it's in my head but I can't stand the texture of chewing it up myself and tasting it by itself.
So I've been subscribed to you for yeeeeears now, ever since I saw your tshirt cutting videos. Love your videos and I've always felt like you were a kindred spirit ❤ Today I just watched the Lowlife music video by that poppy and INSTANTLY knew it was you! You're beautiful inside and out, and I hope you're doing well!
im trying this outtt
One of my favourite meals! I use a butternut squash and coconut milk tho :) love all these recipe videos? Could you do some more? (Vegan ones!!) xx
Since I moved to Texas, I find it difficult to want healthy foods because there is a lot of amazing treats out here to try. I should convince my spouse to make this with me so I wouldn't have to worry about cutting my favorite foods out of my diet.
Totally try it! If you want a more "cheesy" flavor try adding more nutritional yeast. p.s. I love treats too 😪
you should definitely do more food vids
oooh that looks so good!! the recipe is very similar to ellen fisher's cheese recipe. ☺️💘
Lovely!! Maybe an upcoming pumkin version for fall ? ✨🌸
Yum!
Not even vegan but this look delicious and I will forsure try
they mean that they are not vegan, not the food :)
totally misread that! I was going through the ingredients list like what did I miss 😂
I should have worded it better! I was half
Asleep! I'm not vegan but this looks awesome! You did a great job and I'm going to try making it tomorrow!
Looks so yummy, you’ve really inspired me to start thinking about my waste and diet! What would you do with the left over sauce?
I'm getting back on track since my morning sickness has recently subsided tremendously. I disliked the fact that even healthy dishes were making me nauseous. 😟
I will have to try this recipe in the near future .
I love your voice.... can you read my grocery list...?
Looks Good!!! Might have to make this tonight. Kinda new to the Vegan thing. Wife and I watched "The Documentary" that just came out and thought we would try to eat better. 3 weeks later we are still going strong.....just looking for recipies....im getting tired of Veggie Wraps. Any good egg substitutes?
This looks so good, I want to try it!!
Does the taste resemble what real mac and cheese taste like? Does is taste cheesey?
Just made this and it was really good (I'm not vegan either)!
HHUuummm ... delicious
Perfect pronunciation of "al dente". Nice.
Your voice sounds different...
It's slightly sped up I believe
pls do more videos
What does the yeast add? And also, does it taste like cheese? If so, how? The mixture of the yeast with something? I’m so curious. Looks great :)
Nutritional yeast has a cheese-like flavor, yes!
OMG HUNGARIAN PAPRIKA 🌶🇭🇺
Omg yes 😍 I started smiling when I saw it was hungarian🇭🇺
I would love to do some of these dishes one small problem $$$ is there a inexpensive way to do it I'm autistic and I live on disability and I use my stamps what's the cheapest possible way I can do this
Beanaroni and vegetables lol
is voice cracked around 1:30? or my earphones?
Dat Hungarian kalocsay paprika.
Allergic to cashews 😭
Just take out the cashews, still pretty good... You can also sub the sweet potato with 2 small gold potatoes and it'll still be creamy and yummy.
id eat that normally ihate mac n cheese
La pasta non si cucina cosi
So you don't even eat cheeses, so you are a raw vegan.
In case you will decide to eat at least cheeses, you could try make some "Pasta ai quattro formaggi" (i.e. four cheeses pasta) that is quite similar to this one.
That because your bones need milk products, especially if you think that right after menopause female bones start losing calcium rapidly and prevention is the best medicine.
I'm not raw vegan and I'm not even vegan I just don't eat meat and rarely eat dairy. Raw vegan means you follow a vegan diet and don't consume cooked foods. You can get calcium from sources besides dairy and milk is not necessary for healthy bone growth & maintenance. X
Actually i myself don't drink milk too but i eat cheese and a big amount of veggies and dried fruit (that provide for calcium as well).
Milk is an healthy food anyway bacause it contains useful nutrients.
But those who say that milk is unhealthy are victims of a fake news.
Clearly the osteoporosis is caused primarly by the sedentary life, and surely it is not your case, but nutrition has a primary role to prevent it.
Oh, an interesting topic for a future video would be just this, dietetic trends. For us europeans is quite hard to understand the obsession of some americans for some food and dietetic trends, such as the recent one that is against carbs.
at 1:21 did the microphone go in your damn mouth?
