Vegan Truffle Mac & “Cheese” with Coconut “Bacon”
Treat yourself to a plate of this restaurant-style mac & “cheese.” The recipe calls for lots of nutritious plant-based ingredients, such as turmeric, fresh herbs and coconut chips (plus some gourmet dairy-free cheeses!). Look for a high-quality
truffle oil to bring out the maximum amount of flavor. Pair your mac with sliced “chicken-style”
seitan and roasted vegetables for a truly balanced dinner.
