Recipe Card
ingredients
- 1 cups boiled red lentils
- 1 cup oat milk
- 3 cups water
- 1/4 cups nutritional yeast
- 4 tablespoons tapioca starch
- 1/2 tablespoons white miso
- 4 tablespoons ground garlic powder
- 1 tablespoons ground paprika
- 1 squeezed lemon
- 1 tablespoons salt
Method
Step 1
Boil your water in a pot on the stove top then add in your red lentils when it’s ready. Turn the heat to medium and cover, then let it sit for 10 minutes until it looks like mush.
Step 2
Once that’s cooked down, add everything to a blender and pulverize until it’s a smooth cheesy consistency. If you’re using a vitamix, the power of the blender should thicken the mixture.
Step 3
In another large pot, boil 6 cups of water and one box of elbow macaroni following the box instructions. Once it’s cooked, drain and leave to the side.
Step 4
Scoop the lentil cheese mixture into the pot and turn the stove on medium heat. Mix constantly until the cheese has thickened into a queso-like consistency.
Step 5
Lastly, add your cooked macaroni into the pot and any other veggies you’d like.
