Yay! I had decided tonight would be my last attempt at mac & cheese before finally giving up. It's not as good as the real dairy thing, but it's pretty darn good.
I used Soy Station Cheddar and Better than Milk powdered soy milk. I think I may add more cheese next time.
Of course, the ultimate test will be how it tastes cold (I used to love cold leftover Kraft mac & cheese), but it's tasting pretty good hot, too.
I'm thinking the soy milk/cheese combination will also with the one of the other mac & cheese versions around the board.
YAY. I so missed mac & cheese.

I also made this last night with both rice cheese and rice milk - YUMMY! Thanks so much, Kree! What a great comfort food. I have been missing mac 'n' cheese for YEARS. Even hubby liked it!

I like the suggestions about adding veggies for IF... makes this a terrific one-dish meal (LOL, I'm always happy when I have fewer dishes to wash). Can't wait to try it!

Hi, Would this mac/cheese recipe not have too much fat in it? 2 cups of cheese? Just wondering? I could use the soy or rice cheese is that a good option? Thanks

I did not have a problem with it...and I'm guessing from the length of this thread, not many others did either. 
I find soy cheese melts better than rice cheese, especially the Lisanetti brand. It melts AND tastes like dairy cheese.

I just made this Sunday night! I finally found bricks of Galaxy Foods Vegan cheddar at Whole Foods and it worked great. I also added frozen green peas and a can of tuna for some IF and protein. Although I doubt you'll want to add the tuna.

It probably depends on what cheese substitute you use. I can't find nutritional info on the Veggie Shreds Kree says she uses, but the Galaxy Foods website does say they are low fat.
To get fat content you'd need to figure out what cheese you want to use then do the math to see how it works out.

I made this last night and it was soooooo good! Totally satsfied my stressed-out-from-finals-need-comfort-food craving! Actually I think I liked it better than any regular mac and cheese recipes I've made. I think it would be easier to mix the cheese, milk, etc. together first, because the cheese kind of melted in chunks as I tried to stir it into the macaroni. It was still great though! I'd never had soy cheese before and I was afraid - when I opened the package it even smelled and felt a little weird, but I went with it, and it was fantastic!! Couldn't tell a difference (FYI, I used cheddar Soy Sation)

I want to try this recipe because I'm so hungry for mac and cheese. However, the soy cheddar veggie shreds make me horribly sick. Would this work with the mozzarella veggie shreds? Has anyone tried it that way?
