Vegan Supreme Mac & Cheese

Vegan Mac & Cheese just got a whole lot better. This SUPREME Mac & Cheese cheesy, creamy & packed with flavour!

Mac & Cheese is definitely on my top 5 list of comfort foods. Al dente little pieces of noodles covered in a creamy cheesy sauce, mmm. When I went vegan, I can honestly say I have not missed the mac and cheese I grew up on because of this cheese sauce & all the ones I’ve tried at restaurants. They all have their own spin to them but are all delicious in their own way, just like any other traditional mac & cheese! This recipe was inspired by a place I visited in the summer called Parka Food Co in Toronto (which is one of my favourite places). We had a chance to try their burgers, fries and their mac & cheese supreme. The burgers were incredible, the fries were crispy but the mac and cheese…. I couldn’t stop eating it. I was so keen on making it at home because Toronto is quite far from me and I wanted people that aren’t from Toronto to have a taste of this glorious bowl of cheesy goodness.

It starts with a creamy mac and cheese sauce. Then some home made pico de gallo. And of course, the guacamole! Super simple, right?

I always keep my Magic Cheese Sauce on hand because it’s perfect not only as a dipping sauce, but to douse perfectly cooked pasta in. And with the addition of fresh tomatoes and herbs, along with the creamy guacamole… it’s perfection.

Think cheesy & creamy mac, elevated to the next level with more creaminess and bursts of little juicy tomatoes and crunchy bits of veg. It’s amazing.

I really hope you guys try & love this recipe, it’s:

made 100% vegan
gluten free friendly
the perfect dish to bring to any party or potluck

Tips and Tricks to making Vegan Supreme Mac & Cheese

Adjust your seasoning and spices according to your taste buds! I never really measure any of the spices and taste as I go.
If you don’t have a vitamix, I highly recommend you soaking your cashews overnight as it becomes easier to blend.
If you prefer a “runnier” cheese, add a tbsp of plant milk at a time until you reach your desired consistency.
This mac & cheese can be made ahead of time, storing the salsa & guacamole in a separate tupperware and topping when ready to serve.
It can be enjoyed cold, room temp or hot!
