Vegan Pumpkin Mac and Cheese
Ingredients
- @alessifoods 1 lb. Organic Orecchiette
- 1 can pumpkin
- 1.5 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tbsp @alessifoods olive oil
- 1/3 cup nutritional yeast
- 1 tbsp mustard
- 1 tbsp corn starch
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1-2 tsp lemon juice
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- 1/4 tsp nutmeg
Preparation
Cook your pasta according to instructions on the bag
I cooked mine al dente for 13 minutes. Drain and set aside
Over medium heat, add the olive oil in a pan and combine the corn starch and almond milk
Mix together until they are well blended
Add the mustard, nutritional yeast, garlic, onion, nutmeg, pepper, lemon juice, and finally pumpkin
Mix well together until everything is blended and you get a thick, sauce-like consistency
I like to add my salt at this stage
Take the sauce off of the heat and pour over your pasta
I topped mine with chili flakes and some roasted broccoli
