Soy-Free Vegan Mac n' Cheese Recipe (Fat-Free, Nut-Free Vegan Mac n Cheese)

Posted by:Lindsay S. Nixon Category: Recipe

I'm still abundantly proud of my Creamy Mac n' Cheese recipe (in Pudge-Free Holidays) that's fat-free and calls for whole wheat pasta.It's.just.so.tasty! If you own Pudge-Free Holidays, you know that mac n' cheese is traditional holiday fare for my family and that everyone loves my healthier vegan version. The problem? My mom can't dig in with us. She can't have soy because of her thyroid issues and that makes me sad. Nothing makes me more proud than when my own mother loves my cooking, so I knew I had to create a vegan mac she could eat. I just know my mom will love this vegan mac -- I sure do! It also comes together in a snap, showing up all those commercial boxed varieties that homemade and wholesome is just as quick and easy!
