Peas & Carrot Macaroni

Main
This vegan peas and carrot macaroni takes inspiration from "mac and cheese", but with a grown-up, plant-based twist. The sauce is made from blended carrots, giving it a natural sweetness that works surprisingly well. Peas add a bit of freshness and protein, and the spiced breadcrumb topping brings just the right amount of crunch. There's a little warmth from cinnamon, a little tang from sumac, and a pop of brightness from fresh parsley. It's familiar but unexpected in the best way.

So yummy !!!

Very tasty even without the bread crumbs. And quick and easy to make, which is always a plus in my book. 😄 Will be making again.

For a Mac sauce made out of such few ingredients, this one surprised me how savory and flavorful it was. I've been doing a low histamine diet for a month now, and this was a nice change to my usual rotation. Thanks for sharing!

Yayy! So thrilled to hear that the macaroni was enjoyed, Briana 🤗

Comforting, yet has an unexpected freshness. Super budget-friendly too. Definitely goes onto my rotation! I added a splash of lemon when serving and used up some panko breadcrumbs (with Tajin spice and cinnamon) for the topping.

All I’ll say is that I had some sauce left on my immersion blender and I made sure to lick every last bit of it… 🫣 So delicious - I’m so sold on the concept of carrots in pasta sauces with this recipe and the carrot lentil pasta recipe 😍😍😍 So cheesy, so wholesome, and so filling from all that fibre! I added a handful of fresh spinach and didn’t even make the breadcrumb topping.

Love to hear that you enjoyed it, Sharvani! 🧡 Carrots really do work magic in pasta sauces, right?! And that extra spinach sounds like the perfect touch ✨

I’ve never tried making a vegan mac and cheese before so didn’t know what to expect but the taste is very good. I like that it has veggies in it. Just a heads up if you have a small kitchen, this recipe creates a lot of dishes.

Hey Avery, thanks for sharing your experience with the macaroni! In case you're interested in a recipe with fewer dishes, we have a One-Pot Mac & Cheeze recipe 🤗
