#CASHEW CHEESE SAUCE MAC AND CHEESE FULL#
The 8-ingredient sauce is creamy, cashew-based, and full of flavor from nutritional yeast, lemon juice, garlic, turmeric, chili powder, salt, and pepper. You can also stir in black pepper to taste.

Bake for 25-30 min or until golden brown. Dried onion powder Dried garlic powder Ground turmeric: This helps give the sauce that classic yellow color. In a medium bowl, combine the crispy topping ingredients and distribute over the whole dish. Stir to combine and transfer to a large baking dish. When cooking the pasta, make sure to reserve some of the pasta water because it will be used to make the sauce! Combine the al dente noodles with the 2 cups of cauliflower florets that you set aside and pour the cheddar sauce over. Cover tightly with tin foil and bake for 30 minutes. If the mixture still looks dry, add another splash of water. Mix well and transfer to an 8x10-inch baking dish. In a large bowl, mix the pasta shells together with all of the cheese sauce and ¾ cup of reserved cooking water. Yum! The noodles can be wheat-based, gluten-free, or even legume-based (like Banza) for extra protein and fiber. Save 1 cup of pasta water before draining. Any type of noodle will work, but shell-shaped is our top choice because the shells hold the sauce like they’re little spoonfuls. This mac and cheese starts with cooking the noodles.
