Thank you, James, for helping develop a classic recipe that has filled the hearts and homes of so many around the world. James Hemmings, who helped popularize the American classic Mac and Cheese. The documentary covers the history of the first American chefs. If you love food then this documentary should be on your “Must Watch” list. Recently, I watched the documentary “High on the Hog: How African American Cuisine Transformed America”. It is one of the best documentaries I’ve watched to date. I love adding this cheesy pasta to collard greens, lentil patties, black-eyed peas, and cornbread muffins. It’s packed with flavor and adds balance to your dinner. Traditional mac and cheese was a big part of my childhood.

Add small splashes of water if too thick, while stirring and heating it up.This vegan mac and cheese recipe is creamy, rich, and flavorful. When pasta is done, drain it (saving some water) and add your macaroni with your Oil-Free Vegan Cheese Sauce into the pot. This will be your creamy oil-free vegan cheese sauce for your mac and cheese!

If you’ve soaked your cashews overnight or boiled them already for 15-20 mins, make your cheese sauce by draining cashews and then adding all ingredients (cashews, unsweetened vegan milk, nutritional yeast, mustard, lemon juice, paprika, turmeric, garlic powder, salt and/or fresh garlic) into a blender. In another pot, boil water and cook your macaroni pasta according to package instructions. If you haven’t soaked your cashews overnight, start making your vegan cheese sauce by boiling your cashews in water for around 15-20 mins. Start by making sure you have soaked cashews for your vegan mac and cheese sauce.! I recommend soaking cashews in water overnight to soften OR boil with water for around 15-20 minutes.
