MACARONI AND CHEESE WITH A TWIST

I found this recipe in one of my favorite cookbooks: "The Vegetarian Meat and Potatoes Cookbook" Besides being a great dairy free recipe for "mac and cheese", the flavor of the dish from the miso, tofu and lemon is really unique. It's also a fun way to sneak tofu into the diets of non vegetarians. I do eat dairy, so I usually use skim milk and real cheese instead of the soy, but the original recipe from the book uses the non-dairy options.

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Lightly spray a 2 1/2 quart caserole dish with cooking spray.
  • Heat oil in a pan over medium heat, and saute the onion until soft, about 5 minutes.
  • Place onions in a blender or food processor with the milk, tofu, lemon juice, miso, hot sauce, turmeric, and salt and pepper.
  • Process until well blended.
  • Take a taste and adjust any of the seasonings as needed, then set aside.
  • Cook rotini in a large pot of boiling salted water until just under al dente (I'd say about 6-7 minutes).
  • Drain pasta and add the sauce from the blender and half of the grated cheese.
  • Combine well.
  • Place pasta into the caserole dish, and top with the breadcrumbs and the remaining cheese.
  • Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
  • Uncover and bake until the top is lightly browned, 5 to 10 minutes longer.
  • Let sit about 5 to 10 minutes before serving.

1 teaspoon olive oil
1 medium onion, minced
2 cups soymilk (can substitute skim milk)
12 ounces soft tofu or 12 ounces silken tofu
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon white miso
1 -2 dash hot sauce
1/4 teaspoon turmeric
salt & freshly ground black pepper (for a nice change, try using fresh ground white pepper)
12 ounces rotini pasta (spiral shaped)
1 cup grated soy cheese (can substitute cheddar or monteray jack cheese if you eat dairy)
1/2 cup dried breadcrumbs

10 TWISTS ON MAC N' CHEESE | SAPUTO CHEESE

From saputo.ca
  • Add Some Bacon. Who doesn’t love bacon? With its saltiness and crunch, bacon will enhance the taste of the cheese and add texture to your dish. Fry it separately, making sure it’s good and crisp.
  • Swap Out the Pasta for Quinoa. A source of protein, quinoa is great for a more nutritious take on Mac n’cheese. Simply swap out the pasta in our recipe for cooked quinoa.
  • Add in Some Cauliflower. Cauliflower is the perfect way to make your mac n’ cheese even heartier. Dial up the flavour by browning the cauliflower in small florets in the oven before adding it to your recipe.
  • Serve it App-Style. Wow your guests by serving up Mac n’ cheese bites. Once your mixture is ready, spoon it into greased muffin tins. Sprinkle over some bread crumbs and bake for 15 minutes at 375 ° Fahrenheit.
  • Incorporate it into a Grilled Cheese Sandwich. Why not combine two delicious favourites for an ultra-decadent treat? Butter the outsides of two slices of bread and fill with cooled Mac n’ cheese and add a slice of Swiss, Havarti with Jalapeño or Monterey Jack natural sliced cheese.
  • Make it Fancy with Seafood. It’s easy to turn Mac n’ cheese into a gourmet dish by stirring in some lobster, crab or shrimp. You can also put a new twist on a weekday mac n’ cheese meal by adding canned tuna.
  • Stir in Some Squash. Adding puréed squash seasoned with nutmeg, Cayenne pepper, salt and pepper will make your Mac n’ cheese even creamier and tastier.
  • Prepare it with Beer. You may already use white wine in your béchamel sauce when making mac n’ cheese. But next time, try beer for an even richer taste.
  • Go Green. Green veggies and cheese are a match made in heaven! For a healthier take on Mac n’ cheese, pair some peas, spinach, or blanched broccoli florets with Triple Cheddar Shredded Cheese.
  • Turn Up the Flavour. Sometimes, a little detail can make a world of difference. To take your macaroni to the next level, drizzle on some truffle oil or give it a slight spicy flavour by melting in some sliced Havarti with Jalapeño natural cheese slices.
