Who doesn't love Mac and Cheese? I know I do. It's such a wonderful comfort food that delights our senses and is great for a quick and easy meal when you are either on your own or don't feel like making a big messy cooking circus. I recently discovered some delicious Mac and Cheese brands found at varying grocery stores that are actually pretty good.
Vegan Mac and Cheese Brand #1
(Found on Amazon.com or Whole Foods)
Annie's Organic Vegan Shell Pasta and Creamy Sauce. The sauce is made out of pumpkin and sweet potato so the sauce is on the sweeter side, but if you add some veggie dogs, or some peas, carrots, or corn, I don't think you'd be able to really tell the difference between this stuff and the famous and popular kraft brand. I always add ketchup and pepper to my mac and cheese and have enjoyed this on all the brands I have tried thus far. The shells take a little longer to cook than most pastas for some reason, but the texture is worth the wait. This is a very flavorful vegan option. Annie's also does a gluten free version with macaroni noodles, but it uses the same sauce, and it is just as good as the gluten version in my opinion and takes a shorter time to cook. Similar to it's Kraft brother, this brand uses a packet of dry powder for their cheese sauce that you add vegan butter and dairy free milk to.
Vegan Mac and Cheese Brand #2.
(Found online at Amazon.com, at Byerlys, and at Whole Foods)
Daiya brand Cheezy Mac is probably my favorite of the three. This one comes with the sauce already made in the packet so it's already saucy and just needs to go on the pasta once it's done and it also has a surprisingly cheese like flavor and it would be very hard to tell if serving to a family, that it is dairy free and gluten free. It's a spectacular find and can be found at multiple grocery stores as well as online.
Vegan Mac and Cheese Brand #3.
(Found online at Amazon.com and Kowalski's)
This brand, although I don't have a photo of it is Namaste's Macoroni and Cheez Dinner. I do enjoy this brand as well, however my husband and I find that you really need to add something to it because it doesn't have a lot of it's own flavor. So adding some veggies or veggie dogs to this one is a must. I added my usual ketchup and pepper and that was enough for me, but I know the whole world won't share my love for ketchup and pepper on mac and cheese. :)
I hope you enjoyed my review of these 3 brands of Mac and Cheese and I hope they helped you decide whether you want to try them as well. A few more bucks than kraft, but worth it for a comforting vegan treat for the whole family to enjoy!
