My boys love Mac and Cheese, but to be honest, I had never made myself before living vegan hahahha Those Krafts boxes came in handy. Just added this and that, good to go once prepared.
Now that we are living vegan, I make them myself, obviously more packed with goodness and extra creaminess 😀
I can even finish the whole bowl myself, seriously. Forever fat vegan here hahaha
