Plant Based Mac
Chickpea mac nâ cheese. But this time? Vegan. Technically, ya... this mac n' cheese doesnât have any âcheese.â But tell that to your taste buds after you crush a whole box. We start with elbows, made (of course, Ă la Banza) from chickpeas. What do you get when you pair those âbows with a sauce that's rich, cheesy, and dairy-free? A dinner you could eat every day of the week, thatâs what.
Chickpea Pasta: Chickpea, Tapioca, Xanthan Gum
Vegan Cheese: Sweet potato, Nutritional Yeast, Sea Salt, Pumpkin, Tapioca, Annatto Extract, Turmeric Extract, Paprika Extract (color), Lactic Acid, Citric Acid, Paprika, Xanthan Gum, Organic Natural Flavor, Onion, Garlic.
- Butter isnât required, but if you want to live on the wild side, adding a tablespoon or two will make the final cheese sauce richer and creamier!
- A creamy bowl of mac is a great place to throw in some veggies, fresh herbs or spices to change things up. We love adding roasted broccoli to the yellow cheddar.
- Any alternative milk will work but some have more flavor than others. We especially love our vegan mac with oat milk and pea-based milks.
