#VeganCheesechallenge - My Mac & cheese entry

in #vegan6 years ago

Hi guys,

I have actually never made or tried Mac & cheese before I did this vegan version of it. It's not a big deal in Sweden as in the rest of the world so I was not quite sure of how it would go.

This is my contribution my friend deliciousplants #vegancheesechallenge
I loved this competition the moment I saw it since cheese is the only thing I miss as a vegan. We don't have any decent option in Sweden according to me so I'm super excited to see all the posts :)

I found this recipe in High Carb Hannas meal plan portal www.plantmealplanner.co and I just looooove it.
It was cheesy and really delicious. I should have made a little more sauce to add a little extra deliciousness to it since it could get a little dry after the sauce was soaked up by the pasta. I changed it a bit to fit my own taste (more nooch) and I hope you like it.

The cheesiness was made by vegan nooch and is there truly anything better than nooch? I don't think so.

Ingredients:
2 red paprikas
3 dl of nooch
2 garlics
2,3 dl of hempseed
4 tablespoons of lemon juice
A pinch of salt
A pinch of cayenne pepper
1/5 - 1 dl of water

Around 400 grams of your favorite pasta

Instructions:

  • Cook the pasta
  • Chop your paprika and put it in the blender with all your other ingredients.
  • Taste to see if you need to add extra of anything.
  • Blend the sauce with the pasta
  • Add a little parsley on top of your pasta to make it look cute.
  • Devour that delicious bowl.

Make sure to chech out High Carb Hannas meal planner if you need any help planning your meals durning the weeks. I love it and I'm not sponsored in any way. Just want to spead the love of it.

Lots of love / Nicole

Yes, please!

Looks very good. I have never heard of nooch or the measurement dl, although I grew up with the metric system.

Thank you my friend. Oh it's deciliter or 1 and 1/5 cups :).
Thank you for telling me I'll be sure to be more specific in my next post :)

Thanks for that I’ll give your recipe a try!

Let me know what you think when you've tried it =)

All about that nooch 😋😋. Nice, pics look great too.

Thank you darling :)

I'm going to pass this along to some of my vegan friends.

Happy you like it :)

Yummm! Recreating mac and cheese is my fav and I probably have about 3 different recipes now haha. You can get amazing creaminess with pumpkin, sweet potato, cashews or cauli! I’ve shared a recipe but that requires vegan cheese that you might not have there but you can check it out anyway ☺️

It was so delicious :) Easy our favorite recipe from the website.
Ohh I have to check them out :) I think adding caulis would be a great idea since it doesn't have so much flavor on it's own.
I'm definetly heading over to check them out right away :)

It looks yummy. I will try it for dinner tonight.

Thank you :) Let me know how it goes :)

Sold! Easy to make and has Nooch. What could possibly go wrong?

Probably nothing 😂 just be easy on the water and make sure to balance the flavour if you find it to weak 😉

And I havent even tried nooch yet! Dont get upset Nicole, I know I am missing something out;) Just havent would it anywhere still. Where can I buy it in Sweden the next time I am going there?

This recipe sounds amazing and I love the fact that you dont use any potatoes or cashew nuts for it! Very unique!;)
And your food photography is so great here Nicole! Big plus!!!

Oooommg!!! How can you not have tried it?!? 😂 It's ok I forgive you 😘.
You can get it at goodstore. We can go there together next time you come 😊.
Aw thank you so much 😊❤ That means so much for me ❤

Mac and cheese was a huge part of my childhood, so any chance to have it as a vegan option I am all over! Especially when it's made from whole foods! 😋

Let me know if you try it 😊 would love to hear what you think 😊❤

Hey Nicole!

Nice to see your mac n chee!!!! Great pic by the way. GOtta love the nooch and all the garlics in the universe make everything so much better!

All the garlics. All of them. lol.

Take care,
Nick

Thank you so much Nick 😊. I'm so happy you like my photo 😊.
I totally agree! Garlic is the king/queen of spices 😍.

Have a great day buddy.

This recipe ticks all of the boxes for me 😆 it’s quick, easy and doesn’t use crazy ingredients! Thank you for sharing this amazing recipe for vegan Mac and cheese and good luck for the #vegancheesechallenge! 🌱🔥

So happy you like it :) It instantly became our new favourite dish :).
Thank you so much =) Crossing all my fingers and toes :) <3

Hi Nicole, this looks very tasty! I currently have not hemp seeds at home, but will defenitely buy one soon. Have to give it a try.
Cu, Chris
P.S.: I did also learn something new: So far, I haven't heard the term "nooch". I looked it up because I thought that I didn't know it, but it is another term for nutritional yeast. :)

Hi Chris :) I'm so happy you like it and that you will try it. I would love to hear what you think of it :)
Hahahaha I'm sorry about that :D. But fun to have teached you a new term of it :D

Hi Nicole, you really don't have to be sorry bout that. Actually I enjoy learning new stuff! haha
Cu and have a wonderful day!
Cu, Chris

Hi Chris, I'm happy to hear that :D. Happy to hear from you again.

I am going to make this right now, soooooooo simple and delicious 🌸💖🌸

You make me so happy Lena :) Would love to hear what you thought about it :) <3 Thank you dear for your comment <3
