Vegan Mac n' Cheese Recipe

Mac n' cheese is one of those amazing comfort foods that I have missed terribly. Not necessarily because it is tasty, more because I ate it in hoards as a kid. It takes me back to those kraft macaroni and cheese boxes, so tasty, and one of the first things I learned to cook. This is a recipe for a cheese sauce that can be easily be used for macaroni and cheese, or on top of veggies, or as nacho cheese. Endless possibilities!

Vegan Cheese Sauce:
You Need:
3 tablespoons margarine
3 tablespoons flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 and 1/2 cups soy milk
1 cup vegan (daiya) cheese
1/2 teaspoon dijon mustard

To Make:
1. In small saucepan on medium melt the butter.
2. Take the saucepan off the burner and whisk in flour, salt and pepper until smooth. Put back on the burner.
3. Add 1/2 cup of milk, and whisk constantly until the mixture is thick. Add the rest of the milk 1/2 cup at a time, whisking constantly and letting it get thick before adding more. You should end up with a thick white sauce.
4. Add the cheese a handful at a time to the white sauce, letting the cheese you add melt fully before adding more, whisking constantly.
5. Add the dijon mustard.
6. Pour over macaroni (or veggies, or whatever your hearts desires).

You can use any vegan cheese for this, but I used daiya and seriously it was one of the best things I have eaten in a long long time.
