I’ve tried probably 50 vegan mac & cheese recipes but I could never find one that actually satisfied my craving for mac & cheese until this one. It is beyond delicious & super easy to make. Not to mention, it’s actually really healthy for you. This recipe is filled with nutrients such as protein from the nutritional yeast, heart-healthy fatty acids from the cashews, fiber from the sweet potato & so much more. I’m so excited to be sharing this recipe with y’all as it’s one of my absolute favorites!
