Pair it with a crisp green salad, like this Greek Salad, and you’re all set! This version of mac & cheese uses Mozzarella shreds, but you can also swap out Cheddar style. It makes this recipe for Easy Vegan Mac & Cheese with Peas a go-to, as you can stock all of these ingredients in your pantry and freezer for a quick meal you can get into the oven in just about 10 minutes with only 7 ingredients. Though you can make your own plant-based cheese using cashews and almonds, this recipe relies upon packaged vegan cheese shreds, which I keep on hand for many favorite recipes. Who says you have to miss out on mac & cheese when you’re eating plant-based? With so many varieties of plant-based alternatives on the market, there’s really no reason you have to skip out on this classic meal, which can be whipped up so quickly into a satisfying, hearty dish the whole family will enjoy (it’s kid-friendly too!).
