How to make the best VEGAN MAC and CHEESE | Low FODMAP RECIPES | Emma Cole

cashews

🥗Healthier: silken tofu

💰Cheaper: sunflower seeds

Silken tofu provides creaminess with lower fat.

nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: parmesan cheese

Parmesan cheese adds flavor but is not vegan.

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Canola oil is a more budget-friendly cooking oil.

breadcrumbs

🥗Healthier: ground oats

💰Cheaper: crushed crackers

Crushed crackers provide a similar texture for topping.

Start by boiling water for the pasta.

Measure 250 grams of elbow pasta, which is a little over 2 cups, and add it to the boiling water.

In a separate pot, melt 2 tablespoons of vegan margarine over medium heat.

Measure out 2.5 tablespoons of white rice flour and have it ready to add to the melted margarine.

Once the margarine is melted, add the rice flour and whisk it together.

Gradually pour in 2 cups of unsweetened oat milk while whisking to combine until smooth.

Add nutritional yeast, salt, and pepper to taste, and continue to whisk until the sauce thickens.

Once the pasta is cooked, drain it and combine it with the cheese sauce in a large mixing bowl; stir until well coated.
