Vegan Mac & Cheese with Chard

by jamie on February 1, 2010

After a whirlwind business trip to New York  followed by a company offsite in Napa, I was in desperate need of relaxation and of course good food.  :)

Since my bestest friend Tasha who also happens to be a bad ass blogger is moving to Portland in a week, we decided to spend the weekend doing a little drinking, dancing, pampering, yoga-ing and cooking. And since no going away party is complete without Mac and Cheese, we decided to make this fabulous recipe that we found on No Meat Athlete. I was a bit skeptical at first…I mean how can you have Mac and Cheese without the CHEESE??!

But omg, the mac and cheese was f*ing fabulous!

Here’s how we prepared the “cheeseless” sauce…

I keep telling people how amazing this recipe turned out, and I’m immediately met with skeptcism!

I guess this means I have to update my blog before I leave for Portland!

It’s so good, isn’t it? Thanks for the link!

What I love about the mac and cheese is that there’s no soy in it. I don’t have anything against soy; I just don’t think it contributes much flavor to dishes. But apparently most vegan mac and cheese’s are full of it.

I’ve seen this recipe *twice* now (once here, once on matt’s site) and I’m dying to try it. It look absolutely wonderful. And any reason to cook with chard is a good one, since it’s one of the many ingredients I’ve yet to cook with. :D

Yummy! I’m with Matt; I don’t like adding tons of soy to my diet, so it’s REALLY nice to find vegan recipes without any soy.

Oh wow, this does sound awesome. I missed it on Matt’s blog so I’m glad you shared it. I definitely have to give it a try.

This recipe looks killer. I used your idea to make sauce for a casserole I made the other night. It was great. I still want to make the actual recipe though. :)
