Vegan Mac+Cheese with Butternut Squash
Growing up my mom kept our diets pretty clean and I was deprived of this magical food. Maybe it was the deprivation, maybe it's just that mac and cheese is so damn good, either way, as I've grown up - it's been a favorite of mine. High class versions, sleazy boxed versions, baked, stovetop, whatever - it's all good in my world. All good, except for the cheese. And the milk. Sad face.
I've tried various versions and felt there was always something missing. Either the color was wrong, the flavor was off or it was just made up of fake cheeze. This scrumptious version came from a beautiful site called Oh She Glows. The recipe is not only a vegan way to enjoy macaroni and cheese, but a great way to sneak in additional nutrients thanks to the roasted butternut squash. I love that the recipe uses natural, healthy, real ingredients instead of relying on anything "fake" for a synthetic taste. If you're gluten-free, simply use brown rice pasta!
