ROASTED VEGETABLE MAC AND CHEESE LACTOSE-FREE-2

This creamy roasted vegetable macaroni and cheese is super easy to make and a great way to add some extra veggies to your children’s meals. The roasted vegetables blend right into the creamy cheese sauce, making it both delicious and nourishing. I like to make it with either cow’s milk or dairy-free milk and top it with fresh parsley and Aleppo pepper. It’s a comforting, family-friendly meal that’s also packed with nutrients and fiber.

Ingredients
12 ounces brown rice elbow noodles cooked al dente
1½ cups chopped cauliflower
1 small red bell peppers chopped
1 small white onion chopped
1 large carrots pealed and sliced
1 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 cups cashew milk

This is the best Mac and cheese! I love the subtle flavors from the roasted veggies! My 15 month old granddaughter loved it and I knew she was getting a nutrient dense meal!

I really liked this alternative cheese sauce for Mac N cheese
I used an aged 12 month cheddar cheese and it worked well for this recipe .
