Sunrabbits Vegan Powdered Cheese Recipes

DIY POWDERED CHEESE

Steps:

• Spread the Cheddar in a thin, even layer on a microwave-safe plate lined with parchment. Microwave in 30-second intervals until the cheese has melted into a firm disc and the fat has rendered out, about 2 minutes.
• Allow the cheese disc to cool slightly, then peel from the parchment and place on a paper towel to cool completely. It will crisp as it cools.
• Once the cheese disc is completely cooled, break it into pieces. Pulse it in a food processor until finely and evenly ground, about 45 seconds. Add the cornstarch and pulse again just to incorporate.
• Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks. Use to flavor popcorn, vegetables, noodles or anything else you would add cheese to!

SUNRABBIT'S VEGAN MAC'N'CHEESE

Steps:

• Add onion, peppers, potatoes, carrots, garlic and water to a sauce pan and bring to a boil. Cover the pan and simmer for 15 minutes, or until vegetables are very soft.
• While the vegetables are simmering, cook pasta until al dente. Drain pasta (do not rinse) and set aside with the lid on to keep pasta warm.
• Place the almond milk, cashews, salt, coconut oil, mustard, lemon juice and black pepper in a blender cup. Drain water from softened vegetables and add to blender; process until perfectly smooth (use Soup button if you have a Blendtec).
• In a large bowl, toss the cooked pasta and blended cheese sauce until completely coated. Serve immediately.
