Plant-Based Shells & Vegan White Cheddar

Introducing: Plant-Based Shells with Vegan White Cheddar

You might be thinking, how can a mac be so creamy and dreamy yet so bold… and vegan?! Well, the secret sauce involves two of our favorite veggies: parsnips and potatoes. Together, these cute roots make a silky, tangy sauce just waiting to be scooped up by the shell-full.

Chickpea Pasta: Chickpeas, Pea Starch, Tapioca, Xanthan Gum.

Vegan Cheese: Parsnip, Coconut Oil Powder (Coconut Oil, High Oleic Sunflower Oil, Gum Acacia), Sea Salt, Nutritional Yeast, Potato, Organic Natural Flavor, Tapioca, Lactic Acid, Citric Acid, Xanthan Gum, Onion, Garlic.

Vegan butter isn’t 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 peas to the vegan white 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.
