Macaroni and nutritional yeast is a vegan alternative to macaroni and cheese.
1 pound dry macaroni pasta
½ cup margarine
½ cup flour
1 cup nutritional yeast flakes
3 ½ cups water or rice milk, boiling
1 ½ tsp salt
1 ½ tsp garlic powder
1 pinch of turmeric
2 Tbsp soy sauce
Bring 4 quarts of water to a boil, add salt to taste, and add the macaroni.
Melt the margarine over low heat. Beat in flour with a wire whisk. Continue to beat over medium heat until mixture is smooth and bubbly.
Whisk in the 3 ½ cups water. Then, add salt, garlic powder, soy sauce, and turmeric to the liquid.
The sauce should cook until it thickens and bubbles. When that happens, beat in nutritional yeast flakes; if the sauce is too thick, add more water.
When the macaroni is cooked, drain and add the sauce. Serve immediately.
