“What, there’s no cheese in it? I honestly wouldn’t have recognized that now,” my friend said as she literally gobbled down this delicious mac and cheese. In keeping with the theme, she also has a Lactose intolerance . Perfect, because this delicious vegan dish comes completely without cheese, milk or the like. Maybe you can think of a suitable name, because actually there is no “cheese” in it. I’d say we’ll just turn a vegan blind eye to the choice of title.

Pumpkin Mac & Cheese (vegan)

Vegan pumpkin mac 'n' cheese recipe

In the fall/winter season, I always have a Hokkaido pumpkin on hand because you can just always do something with it. Whether it’s something sweet or sour, pumpkins are just so incredibly versatile:

This simple pasta dish requires only 10 ingredients and is very easy to make. I’ll even show you how to very easily roast a pumpkin so you can treat your loved ones to an absolutely homemade vegan meal!

Once the pumpkin is roasted, then everything goes very quickly. For the sauce, all you need is a handful of ingredients and a high-powered blender. The ingredients? Vegan parmesan , Almond milk , nutritional yeast, garlic and of course: pumpkin!

So once the pasta is cooked, you’ve almost reached the home stretch. Now just mix with the creamy sauce, serve and enjoy! For an extra crispy touch, you can also bake the mac ‘n’ cheese briefly in the oven. I’m sure you’ll get a lot of praise for this vegan dish from non-vegans as well. I’d say it’s ready to go!
