Mac and 'Shews (Vegan Mac and Cheese)

Mac and 'Shews (Vegan Mac and Cheese)
  • 1 cup unroasted cashews
  • 1 cup vegetable broth
  • 3 tablespoons nutritional yeast flakes
  • 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons white miso
  • 2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
  • black pepper to taste
  • 8 ounces small shell pasta or macaroni
  • 1 1/2 cups arugula (optional)


  1. Blend cashews, broth, yeast, lemon juice, miso, and onion powder in a high-powered blender (such as a Vitamix(R)), scraping down sides with a spatula until completely smooth. Season with salt and pepper, keeping in mind that you want it just a little saltier than usual because it's going to be poured over other ingredients.
  2. Meanwhile, bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook pasta according to package directions.
  3. Drain, return to pot, and stir in cashew sauce. Cook over low heat, stirring, until sauce thickens a bit and everything is deliciously creamy, about 3 minutes. Stir in arugula (if using) and add more salt, if needed. Serve immediately.
