This macaroni & cheese recipe is still my go-to recipe, but sometimes I don't have the time or patience to deal with the multiple steps.
On those days, I use a much simpler and just as delicious option....
I adapted this recipe from Atlanta's Soul Vegetarian Restaurant and made it creamier by adding in vegan cheddar and mozzarella cheese.
Here's a picture of what happened the first time I made this recipe for lunch...
The family approved!
It's funny how things change-I used to think of macaroni & cheese as a side dish, now I see it as the main entree with two vegetables on the side.
