When I decided to stop eating dairy, Mac and Cheese was one of the foods I missed the most. I mean honestly, who doesn’t love a warm bowl of creamy, cheesy, satisfying, mac and cheese? I searched the internet to try and find an alternative that omitted dairy. Unfortunately, most of them contained cashews (I’m allergic). As my search continued, I found lots of recipes that looked good, but contained an ingredient or two that I didn’t want to include. Finally, I decided to create my own recipe!
My ideal mac and cheese had to be:
- Dairy Free
- Nut free
- Gluten Free
- Sugar free
- Fat free
WOW… I’ve got a lot of requirements!!!
After a few tweaks, I finally created a sauce that I am not only satisfied with, but that I have been putting on EVERYTHING.
Banza Plant-Based Chickpea Mac & Cheese – Gluten Free Healthy Pasta - High Protein, Low Carb and Non-GMO - Shells with Dairy Free Vegan Cheddar Cheese (Pack of 6) 3.9 out of 5 stars 128 $22.49 $ 22. 49 ($0.68/Ounce). Easy Vegan Macaroni and Cheese Besides being low-fat, this recipe is also low in sodium, so salt-lovers may need to add salt. The tahini adds a little fat but a lot of flavor; still, leave it out if you need a completely oil-free dish.

Notes
Fat Free Vegan Cauliflower Mac And Cheese
Recover my files v5 download with crack. This sauce is creamy, cheesy, and delicious. I will admit, it doesn’t taste like mac and cheese that comes from a box, but it absolutely satisfies the craving and tastes great!
My “aunt in law” has been making some of my recipes with her son, and I realized that this recipe is totally kid friendly! I think it would be fun for a child to chop all of the ingredients, and watch the sauce turn color as it blends!
