"Cheesy" Macaroni Recipe




What’s in it

1 pound pasta (whole grain or brown rice)

Blend together:

1 1/4 cups water

1 cup plain rice milk or almond milk

2 cups softened butternut squash cut in cubes (can be steamed or roasted)

1/3 cup nutritional yeast (or brewer's yeast)

3 tablespoons arrowroot powder (or cornstarch)

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 teaspoon salt (or more to taste)

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1/2 teaspoon dry mustard

1/2 teaspoon paprika

1/2 teaspoon turmeric

2 tablespoons tahini

2 teaspoons mellow white miso (or additional salt)

black pepper to taste

1/4 cup brown rice bread crumbs



How it’s made

1. Put the pasta on to boil, according to package directions. While it's cooking, blend all remaining ingredients together in a blender.

2. When the pasta is al dente, drain it, reserving about 1/2 cup of the cooking water, and return the pasta to pan.

3. Add the sauce mixture and cook, stirring, until mixture boils and thickens. Add a little of the pasta water if more moistness is needed.

4. If the sauce is not as flavorful as you'd like, add a little more mustard and onion powder.

5. Place the pasta and the “cheese sauce” together in a large baking dish and top with brown rice bread crumbs and bake in the oven for 10-20 minutes (if you like the crispy baked kind).

6. If there is extra sauce, leave some aside for another batch.

Flu Vaccine

Test your flu IQ
1. The flu vaccine can give you the flu.


False (so false). The viruses in the flu shot formula are either killed or totally inactivated; in the nasal spray vaccine, they’re wimpier than a wet noodle. Neither form can infect you
