I spent this afternoon teaching my roommate to cook vegan macaroni with nutritional yeast.

He said he liked it more than he thought he would. I'm trying to give him the recipe now so he makes it for himself again. We made 6 servings so that'll give him plenty of time to get hooked. 😇

Do you recommend any brand of vegan cheese based on taste? They seem to look okay, have an okay texture, but taste horrible :(

@PhilDeep I don't use vegan cheese, I don't much like it. I use the following recipe & nutritional yeast brand:

It doesn't taste exactly like macaroni & cheese but in my opinion it's considerably better. My brother who's still an omni says it's best to just think of it as a vegan pasta instead of comparing it to something else, if that makes sense.

@BlueVeins I'll look it up, thanks :)
