Mac and Cheese

Vegetarian Times Issue: June 1, 2008   p.71

The “cheese” sauce is thickened with rice flour, making it both vegan and gluten free. This recipe was a winner in our 2008 Restaurant Poll, and is a popular entrée at the kid-friendly Vita Café in Portland, Oregon.

Directions

  1. Whisk together soymilk, rice flour, yeast, soy sauce, granulated garlic, and granulated onion in saucepan. Simmer 4 minutes, or until thickened, whisking constantly. Whisk in margarine and mustard, and simmer 10 minutes more.
  2. Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain, and toss with sauce.

I was psyched to see this recipe, but disappointed that it contains soy milk. I bet a very decent alternative is to use rice milk or even almond milk, which would make it creamier...so for those of us who are vegan, gluten-free AND soy-free, there is still hope for a delicious mac & cheese...
