The first half of this recipe can be made on its own and used as a vegan cream cheese.
Blend soaked cashews by adding about 1/2 cup of vegetable broth. Keep mix thick and creamy.
Scoop into a bowl.
Stir in probiotic or yogurt, salt and lemon squeeze to taste.
Cover for at least 2hrs no more than 24hrs on the kitchen counter in a warm but not hot space.
Boil Bentilia elbow macaroni and begin preparing the rest of the Cheez sauce while you wait:
Zest or microplane 3 garlic cloves.
Pour just about 1/4 cup of your vegetable broth in to a sauce pan on medium low heat.
When the broth is hot gradually stir in turmeric, mustard powder, about 2 of the zested garlic, nutritional yeast and add just enough broth to keep mix from being too runny and reserve the rest
Allow the mixture heat fully then remove from heat.
Stir in starch
Remove Elbows from water and drain
Add your cooled garlic mix to your blended cashews and adjust texture with the remaining reserve broth available.
Spoon and fold cheez onto pasta and enjoy.
For a hearty Mac & Cheez add marinated kale, steamed zucchini or blanched and chopped broccoli
