Vegan mac and cheese

½ cup hemp seeds

1 cup water

1/2 cup of carrots, chopped and steamed 

3 tablespoons + 2 teaspoons tapioca starch (also known as tapioca flour)

2 tablespoon nutritional yeast

1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

1/4 teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon garlic powder

+ Several cups of cooked pasta

1. Steam carrots in a pot on the stove or in a microwave. 

2. Add all ingredients except pasta to a blender or food processor and blend until completely smooth.  

3. Pour into a small sauce pan over medium-high heat, and continually stir as it cooks. After about 5 minutes of stirring it will become a cheesy gooey mass.

5. Add to your favorite kind of pasta and enjoy! 

6. Store extra cheese sauce in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
