Family mac and cheese

My family love macaroni cheese. Tonight I served with a simple salad and french dressing. The vegan, plant-based version follows the same recipe. It’s nice with added Kale or cauliflower mixed through the sauce (If you chop it into small pieces there’s no need to cook it first) or topped with tomatoes and ‘fakeon’ bits.

My family love macaroni cheese. Tonight I served with a simple salad and french dressing. The vegan, plant-based version follows the same recipe.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Cook the macaroni according to the instructions and drain
- 2
Melt the butter on a low heat and stir in the flour until you have a smooth paste. Slowly whisk in the milk, a little at a time. Heat until bubbling and then simmer until thickened.
- 3
Turn off the heat and stir in half of the cheese until melted and the mustard. Season to taste Waugh salt and pepper.
- 4
Add the macaroni to the sauce and transfer to an oven proof dish. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Bake in the oven at 200c for around 20 minutes or until cheese is bubbling and the top is crispy. You could grill to get a crispy topping if you prefer.

This is a spin on a crock pot creamy macaroni and cheese dish. I love baked macaroni and cheese but hate the way it gets dried out. This is so creamy. And great to reheat. Add a little milk and pop it in the microwave! Brittany Thompson -

Cheesy Mac and Cheese (without the mess) Cheesy Mac and Cheese (without the mess)
Since this is my recipe, of course I'm going to rate it 5 stars! Lol... Just a few notes though: I usually use the American cheese slices, and just break them up into little pieces. More recently, I've used Rienzi kids macaroni with carrot and squash to add the vegetable factor, lol. Also, while the bread crumbs add that extra oomph, they're not totally necessary. But when you add the crumbs, I sometimes put a sliver of butter on the corners of the pan, just so it doesn't burn. Hope you guys love it! (whenever possible, use low fat/reduced fat products... it comes out just as great!) The cover photo is from the first time I made it, and I have since improved my presentation, lol. msquietstormj -

Plant based meatballs & spaghetti Plant based meatballs & spaghetti
The origin derives from Italian meat balls & spaghetti dish but beef is substituted for plant based meatless beef making it a vegan dish. The sauce used has no added sugar and final cheese toppings consist of vegan cheddar. In addition the spaghetti can either be super green vegetable spaghetti or preferably gluten free. Shelan -
Easy mac n cheese! Easy mac n cheese!
I used penne pasta instead of elbow Macaroni n I think it came out just as good. U can add bread crumbs to this recipe. If you choose too mid way through cooking cover mac n cheese with foil so the bread crumbs don't burn. U can also add bacon, ham or tomatoes before putting it in the oven as well. ;) curvy.n.sexii -
