Mac and Cheese Recipe- Gluten Free, Dairy Free!

To me, this is one of the most exciting recipes I have come across since I started living gluten and dairy free a year ago. A little backstory for you here: I had a serious macaroni and cheese obsession as a child. I know many of you are saying, yes, we all did...no trust me- it got so bad that by the age of 6 my parents taught me how to make the blue box (Kraft) on my own. Whether it was my 6 year old smarts that had convinced them, or the sheer convenience of me making it myself as appose to them getting in the kitchen 3 times a day to do it for me- it happened. These days, finding a substitute for the real thing has been a tough journey. Luckily, I have a smart and dedicated man who was up for the challenge. This picture is the dish he created- a masterpiece:

Gluten Free & Dairy Free Mac and Cheese


I will be attempting the dish on my own this week and I have a feeling I will have similar success so I wanted to share the recipe ASAP and get the word out there for all of you crazy mac and cheese obsessed fans such as myself:

1/2 bag of GF pasta (rice pasta shells work great)
1/2 cup of Coconut milk (or creamer)
2 cups of Almond milk
1 tablespoon GF yeast flakes
1 tablespoon GF breadcrumbs (set aside)
1 package of Soy cheeze or Rice Cheeze (stay away from vegan cheese- the flavor is lacking)

Boil the pasta and set aside. In a small sauce pan over medium heat combine and continually stir all of the ingredients. Once the cheeze is fully melted, add the mixture to the pasta and stir until all of the shells are completely covered. Finally, add the breadcrumbs to complete!

I hope you enjoy this masterpiece as much as I did/will continue to do :)
