Recipe

• 1 preheat oven to 350 degrees. cook macaroni until it is almost al dente but still slightly undercooked. melt earth balance in small saucepan and add 1 tbsp flour. cook until it gets bubbly, about 2 minutes. add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. whisk in remaining flour, water, nutritional yeast, soy sauce, turmeric, paprika, pepper, and cayenne, and cook, whisking often, until the sauce thickens but is still runny enough to drip off of the whisk. mix in mustard. add sauce and teese to cooked macaroni in a casserole dish (i used an 8 x 6 1/2 inch pyrex dish) and mix until well combined. top with breadcrumbs and cook for about twenty minutes, with a couple of minutes under the broiler if you want the breadcrumbs extra crunchy.
