Today is National Macaroni Day. Mac 'n' Cheese is probably the most popular way to use macaroni noodles. Good vegan Mac 'n' Cheese recipes used to be but a dream, but now there are many fantastic and inspired vegan recipes out there. I've gathered quite a bunch including some gluten-free, nut-free, soy-free, grain-free, paleo, and raw vegan options. Some are baked, some are more traditional, some use nutritional yeast, or cashews, or Daiya shreds. Do some browsing and see which ones catch your eye.

I tried the Candle Cafe mac & cheese - it didn't hold a candle to Amy's (pun intended). Even Damon's doesn't come close to the scrape-the-box passion I have for Amy's mac & cheese. Signed, your friendly Daiya addict!
Yeah, I was surprised at how good the Amy's one is! I have a box of that in my freezer as I type this. haha. I actually haven't even tried Damon's yet. Someday maybe. :)
