Creamy Mac and Cheese
Ingredients
- 1 large sweet potato
- 1 can of white beans
- 1 medium onion
- 4-5 garlic cloves (or more depending on preference)
- 1 tbsp avocado oil
- 1 cup coconut milk (can)
- 1/2 cup nutritional yeast

- 1/2 tbsp tamari
- 1 tbsp yellow mustard
- 1 tbsp miso paste (optional)
- salt to taste
Preparation
Roughly chop onion and garlic and sauté them in a bit of avocado oil until lightly browned and fragrant. Always start with onion first so the garlic won’t burn
Peel and cut sweet potato and rinse beans well
Add onion, garlic, sweet potato and beans to a pot along with enough water to cover everything
Cover pot with a lid, bring to a boil and cook until sweet potatoes are very soft
Transfer veggies and beans to a food processor/blender along with about 1 cup of the cooking liquid
Add coconut milk, apple cider vinegar, tamari, miso paste (if using), mustard and nutritional yeast and blend until smooth and creamy
Taste and if needed adjust seasoning to your liking
Cook macaroni in the mean time and mix hot pasta with the finished sauce
