I think the overhead vids are more pleasing on the eye and I like the fast paced simplicity you give it, so I’d say for the recipes that are more intricate and you know there are some tips/ tricks to give with it, maybe do a demo like this ! Xx
This recipe looks perfect for kids! I have four vegan boys who devour some mac n cheese! Over the holidays, we made Timmy's (Mississippi Vegan) recipe THREE times it is amazing but super high in fat! Ha! Will give this one a try since it's more balanced and just as creamy looking!
This is the first vegan meal my boyfriend ever made for me (after seeing it in a collab video you did), and it is AMAZING!! We've had at least 5 times since, and it's great every time! I honestly think it tastes so so close to the real thing!! My boyfriend (who's not vegan) also loves it! Plus, he's deathly allergic to nuts, so this really is the perfect recipe!! Thank you!!!
I think doing a mix of both video styles is nice! The overhead ones seem more "clean," but this is also a fun style for getting to see more of your personality =)
I like the single recipes. My favorite shaped pasta are the shelled pasta because I like how the sauce gushes in your mouth. I love this recipe! Thanks for the easy and yummy recipes!
I’m not even vegan and I prefer vegan Mac! I used to love cheese but I actually love all the fake vegan cheese better like nut cheese (cashew is my fav) or Chao on my Ezekiel with egg for bfast. Vegan cheeses rock! And taste better!
I've made this twice now, it's amazing. I added mushroom, broccoli and vege sausage with the mach to give it something extra. I do think it needs the salt too.
Seriously my favorite vegan mac n cheese recipe. Super easy and delicious. The flavors go so well together. You’re a genius! Lol I made it again tonight for dinner 😋
This was one of the first vegan recipes of yours I tried when I first started going vegan and it really set me off on the right foot! Thank you for this recipe 💗
！！！！Hi, Cailtin, I ve been follow you for more than 5 months! I like all your recipes, I tried your desserts, pasta, chickpeas, all turns out perfectly, love you so much from China. I tried this Mac & Cheese today, my boyfriend said it is best vegan cheese I’ve ever made. hhhhh
This looks so good! I'm trying to be dairy free but giving up cheese will be the death of me lol. I would also say I really enjoy single recipe videos more!
Love this type of video! I really like all of the tips and tricks from these types of videos. I lol'd when about not liking the sound of mac and cheese. That's so me! Gonna have to give this recipe a try stat. Thanks!
i’ve been making your mac and cheese recipie for ages now, it’s my favorite! can’t wait to try it baked with the topping! thanks for another great video!!!
Grew up eating baked Mac and cheese every week. Never seen the dry crumble topping until a few years ago. Tastes real gritty. You can skip the topping.
This was the best cheese recipe I have tried! I cannot stand the cashew ones, they don't taste very good to me, and the texture is weird. This had the perfect texture, color, and taste! I loved it! Thank you so much for this!
Great recipe. I made Vegan Mac and Cheese on Tuesday night for dinner and ate the leftovers last night. It is one of my favourite recipes which I am glad I didn't have to give up when I left animal products.
I love the overhead videos more for faster recipes, but these are good too! Maybe some brighter lighting would help, but I like watching you cook as well :)
Thank you so much for posting this! We're vegan and need to be gluten free. On top of that, my daughter is allergic to nuts so cashews are out. It makes it really hard sometimes since She can't have as many things as we can so she'll be so happy to try this!
I love videos like this one! There more personal and I like the extra tips you give with them! Keep them coming! And fav pasta shape...penne for sure! ❤️🤗
I like demo style better, but maybe a mixture would be helpful! Also, my favorite noodle shape are shells, because I think they're so cute, but ironically I always buy elbows
this non-chalent, sorta-kinda-grumpy 'approach' reminds me of how miss rachael ray slowly got a little less radioactively happy year to year and is now almost on a similar wavelength herself....except then the vanity broke out from hiding.....hehe, but great video, i Luuv love it
Thank you so much!! I've been struggling with veganism only because I haven't found a cheese that satisfyings my cravings, but this recipe knocked it out of the park
Thanks Caitlin, I was looking for an alternate Mac n Cheese recipe that doesn't have cashews for my kids to try..but I think it was the nutritional yeast smell that offended them the most LOL. I am trying to transition my kids to a WFPB based diet starting with meatless Mondays and upping that slowly once I have found enough healthy vegan meal options they all eat. I figure I need at least 7-10 rock solid reliable meals that please all my fussy little eaters. Do you know of anything other than nutritional yeast for flavoring it cheesy?? Cheers Melissa from Australia
So I just made this recipe but I think I used the wrong tahini :/ I went to the link but it brought up like 50 different ones. So I bought one that was nutty(?) I don’t know if it was right at all. Please help!!!
What would be a good substitute for potatoes? At my store they only come in big bags and my potatoes always end up sprouting before I eat most of them. Could I replace with any other carby thing like flour/chickpeas?
Potatos == Nightshade vegetables == bad for me. I plan to use sweet potatoes as substitute -- adding more salt and ACV to compensate for the sweeter potato. Any thoughts?
Thanks for the recipe I want to try it! do you think that soy milk would work? I want to do you apple crumble muffins and I don't know what to do with the leftovers of soy milk.... thanks!
so I tried this recipe last night and idk why but it tasted really bad. kinda like cardboard. maybe I did something wrong but like i followed the recipe exactly??
A big reason why people say that they wanna go vegan but can’t give up the cheese is because it actually has morphine like compounds in it. So in other words, it’s basically drugs
I like both styles of video. I think the light needs to be a little better in the kitchen because you look kind of sad in this lighting. I loved the video. Thanks for sharing.
i’m wanting to make the switch to vegan so badly but i CANNOT give up ranch, sour cream or cheese and basically everything else dairy. i love it. i know it’s not good but i honestly am so picky i don’t know how i’d eat without it. so many decisions 😭 this looks amazing tho.
Lhiana Mae I felt exactly the same before I went vegan! There’s honestly so many substitutes for dairy products that you can implement, even just buying a plant based milk or having vegan ice cream when you are craving makes a difference
Do you know something to use instead of nutritional yeast? last year I found out from a noted nutritionist that nutritional yeast, over time puts holes in your brain. You should have been in the room. He said the whole idea initially was good, but after the process that it goes through caused this mess. #pindrop. I never touched it after that. I would prefer to be sure, safe and not sorry.
Ok so when I saw the potatoes and carrots I was like I'm not trying this, but the finished product looks so good now I'm saying "I'ma have to try this!" 👌🏾💯
LovatoLover22 hahahaha it tasted like potatoey and carroty pasta with a hint of nutritional yeast, which by the way, tastes nothing like cheese !!! Who said it tasted like cheese and have they ever tried cheese before ??? Like ??? It stunk up my entire house, I literally had one bite and left the house to get pizza so I’d have food for my breakdown lol
LovatoLover22 it just wasn’t mac and cheese like at all! It tasted of vegetables that have no reason being with pasta, it was just bad. Btw I’ve had RUclips since 2011 I think, this was my first negative comment ever, I just had to share bc on video it looks great, super similar to Mac and cheese but that’s all it is : picture perfect 😅😅
Thank you for sharing that with me I read the comments on this video because I've made for fries that she had made but made it my owb recipe you for myself but back to the fake macaroni and cheese I have read the comments and most people say the exact same thing that you have said that it tastes like potatoes that are water down macaroni and cheese minus the cheese
i made one similar to this base but added cashews and vegan shredded FYH cheese and it was the best vegan mac i ever had but i didnt want to buy those :( guess i will have to
Do you have any suggestions for cheaper substitutes as appose to using tahini? Also awesome recipe, I really appreciate the simply healthy ingredients.
I absolutely LOVED this video ! You are so refreshing to watch and really like the simplicity of the instructions. Thanks for the informative description of ingredients as well, much appreciated!
1) Definitely like the overheads better. If the camera was more zoomed in on you instead of such a wide shot, it may be better as well. 2) I don't want my food to taste like wang. If I want to taste wang I know where to find it. 3) cavatappi but also shells, spirals, and cartoon characters. I miss those cartoon shaped pastas from my nonvegan days.
I’m a vegetarian, I like making vegan dishes a couple times a week, I tried this... it really disappointed me. I’ve loved some of your other recipes, like the on the go/ premaade and they were great!! But you just can’t compete w the real thing:(
I like the demos where you can see your face! For some recipes or quick-paced compilations I see why overhead works better. Love the recipe and will be trying it! I usually make a cashew based sauce and put roasted broccoli and onions in mine. Also loving the words "wang" and "wangy" :P
never heard the word "wangy" but like i get what you mean somehow hahaha
I think the overhead vids are more pleasing on the eye and I like the fast paced simplicity you give it, so I’d say for the recipes that are more intricate and you know there are some tips/ tricks to give with it, maybe do a demo like this ! Xx
I prefer my food to not taste like wang 😂😂😂
The comments are literally
99.9%: talking about "wangy"
The other .1% : also talking about wangy
since when has 'wangy' been a descriptive word with food? lol
I know, right? I kept thinking, "I must not be hearing her right"
But apparently I was.🤔😂
I though she was saying twang or tang
I thought she was saying “tangy”
I have used it and I know many that do. Maybe it's a midwest thing?
That just her way of saying tang
This recipe looks perfect for kids! I have four vegan boys who devour some mac n cheese! Over the holidays, we made Timmy's (Mississippi Vegan) recipe THREE times it is amazing but super high in fat! Ha! Will give this one a try since it's more balanced and just as creamy looking!
Never in my life have I heard anyone describe food as “wangy” 😂
Cathryn Dianne this recipe is nut free! But it still has a wangy flavor 😂😭
What does it mean lol
Just her way of saying it has some tang!
Tangy, Caitlin... You mean *Tangy*
44GlenCoCo wangy is a fun word too
Oh no. She definitely meant wangy. 😆
I havent even see n the video yet...but she didnt hahah so funny
I've been looking for a vegan Mac and cheese recipe without using cashews cause they're so expensive! I look forward to trying this!
Oh yeah , and I made it with cashews and my kids didn’t like it!
Look up Avant-Garde Vegan, he's amaaazing!
This is the first vegan meal my boyfriend ever made for me (after seeing it in a collab video you did), and it is AMAZING!! We've had at least 5 times since, and it's great every time! I honestly think it tastes so so close to the real thing!! My boyfriend (who's not vegan) also loves it! Plus, he's deathly allergic to nuts, so this really is the perfect recipe!! Thank you!!!

Yum! 🤤 Thank you so much for a nut free vegan recipe! They are hard to come by
“The veggies have been chopped now it’s time to dice them up” 2:10 what
vibee dao 😂 I was looking for this comment
Like “I know I’m not the only one who caught that?” 😂
Wang? Tang? Hmm
I love the over head recipe VIDS! There the best :)
I like the single recipes. My favorite shaped pasta are the shelled pasta because I like how the sauce gushes in your mouth. I love this recipe! Thanks for the easy and yummy recipes!

Seriously my favorite vegan mac n cheese recipe. Super easy and delicious. The flavors go so well together. You’re a genius! Lol I made it again tonight for dinner 😋
Hemp hearts make the BEST vegan parm!
I don’t know if this is a southern thing but I don’t ever want my food to taste like wang 😅
This was one of the first vegan recipes of yours I tried when I first started going vegan and it really set me off on the right foot! Thank you for this recipe 💗
Wang? Lol 😂
Please write the recipes in the description or each recipe so it's easy to look up ;)
I prefer the demos, I like it because you're in the shot and can see more of your personality
！！！！Hi, Cailtin, I ve been follow you for more than 5 months! I like all your recipes, I tried your desserts, pasta, chickpeas, all turns out perfectly, love you so much from China.
I tried this Mac & Cheese today, my boyfriend said it is best vegan cheese I’ve ever made. hhhhh
Overhead!
This looks so good! I'm trying to be dairy free but giving up cheese will be the death of me lol. I would also say I really enjoy single recipe videos more!
This was disgusting!
Overhead for sure! But that's because I like fast recipe videos. Unless it's a vlog or sit down video. Hope this helps!
Single recipes in this format is great! I enjoy more just “hanging” with you like this. I replay your video, and cook with you!
Love this type of video! I really like all of the tips and tricks from these types of videos.
I lol'd when about not liking the sound of mac and cheese. That's so me! Gonna have to give this recipe a try stat. Thanks!
No one gonna talk about that spongebob of a spatula?
what is wangy?!?!?! hahahahahahha i have NEVER heard that before
The weird thing is, I had never heard it either yet I know EXACTLY what she means hahaha
i’ve been making your mac and cheese recipie for ages now, it’s my favorite! can’t wait to try it baked with the topping! thanks for another great video!!!
Grew up eating baked Mac and cheese every week. Never seen the dry crumble topping until a few years ago. Tastes real gritty. You can skip the topping.
This was the best cheese recipe I have tried! I cannot stand the cashew ones, they don't taste very good to me, and the texture is weird. This had the perfect texture, color, and taste! I loved it! Thank you so much for this!
ONE WORD: DELICIOUS. I was skeptical, but this came out perfectly. I’m gobsmacked.
I LOVE THIS RECIPE!!!! Just found your channel!!!!! So excited to try so many go your recipes!!
Great recipe. I made Vegan Mac and Cheese on Tuesday night for dinner and ate the leftovers last night. It is one of my favourite recipes which I am glad I didn't have to give up when I left animal products.
I love the overhead videos more for faster recipes, but these are good too! Maybe some brighter lighting would help, but I like watching you cook as well :)
Thank you so much for posting this! We're vegan and need to be gluten free. On top of that, my daughter is allergic to nuts so cashews are out. It makes it really hard sometimes since She can't have as many things as we can so she'll be so happy to try this!
I love videos like this one! There more personal and I like the extra tips you give with them! Keep them coming! And fav pasta shape...penne for sure! ❤️🤗
Would a sweet potato work instead of a white potato and a carrot?
dischi pasta is my absolute favourite!
I would love to learn how to make a 'cheese' leek and 'ham' recipe! I always get cravings for it!
I really appreciate that you did a nut free recipe! My partner has a tree nut allergy and I'm always looking for ways to get him to eat vegan. Thanks!
Vegan crack 😂 so true. Can’t wait to try this
Love all your videos, but your demos are especially helpful because of the tips you offer. Makes the recipes seem more "doable." Thanks!
I like demo style better, but maybe a mixture would be helpful! Also, my favorite noodle shape are shells, because I think they're so cute, but ironically I always buy elbows
this non-chalent, sorta-kinda-grumpy 'approach' reminds me of how miss rachael ray slowly got a little less radioactively happy year to year and is now almost on a similar wavelength herself....except then the vanity broke out from hiding.....hehe, but great video, i Luuv love it
I have yet to do the full baked version, but your recipe is always my go-to for vegan m&c 😊
This recipe looks great and all, but tbh I prefer my m&c with a lot more wang.
ahhh soooo creammmy! How delish! I love these types of demo videos, just because i LOVE to watch you cook :D
Thank you so much!! I've been struggling with veganism only because I haven't found a cheese that satisfyings my cravings, but this recipe knocked it out of the park

I like this style of video. It is quite informative for vegan cooks.
I personally prefer these kinds of videos and fusilli noodles with a pesto sauce is a fav!
i always go for the curly/spiraled noodle, BOMB
also can’t wait to try this recipe !!!
so I tried this recipe last night and idk why but it tasted really bad. kinda like cardboard. maybe I did something wrong but like i followed the recipe exactly??
A big reason why people say that they wanna go vegan but can’t give up the cheese is because it actually has morphine like compounds in it. So in other words, it’s basically drugs
Love your recipes! Have you got a recipe for enchiladas/quaesadillas/burritos? X
I'm still hoping that one day there will be a soy-free, nut-free, nutritional yeast free mac & cheese lol
thank you for making this nut-free! it's so appreciated!
Can I use any other type of potato?
Hey Caitlin looks delicious I've never seen Mac and cheese made that way thanks for sharing
LOVE THIS!!! 😍😍😭
I love these food demos, and my favorite type of pasta style is the bow ties!
That’s what bomb 🐱sounds like
I like both styles of video. I think the light needs to be a little better in the kitchen because you look kind of sad in this lighting. I loved the video. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Caitlin, could the left over cheese be frozen?
Going to try this recipe...thanks.🙂
Wang. Heellll yea.
Vegan crack is an accurate description
Amazing chef Caitlin!!
i’m wanting to make the switch to vegan so badly but i CANNOT give up ranch, sour cream or cheese and basically everything else dairy. i love it. i know it’s not good but i honestly am so picky i don’t know how i’d eat without it. so many decisions 😭 this looks amazing tho.

anyone can call themselves a nutritionist. if he was a licensed dietitian then maybe that would mean something
I think I'm in love with your sassyness 😆
Your knife skills scare me, be safe!
fettuccine, tagliatelle 7 pappardelle are my favorite pastas
Looks like Mac and Cheese but doesn't taste like the real thing.. mozzarella and cheddar > than carrots and potatoes
Diabetes is in your future
Vegan plant based WANG!
Thanks.... I printed the recipe ! You are awesome ! My favorite vegan RUclipsr !
Looks so delicious!! I’ll try making this. Nothing more comforting than elbow pasta. That’s my favorite.
Ok so when I saw the potatoes and carrots I was like I'm not trying this, but the finished product looks so good now I'm saying "I'ma have to try this!" 👌🏾💯
Don’t make this, it was so bad
LMAO what did it taste like?
LovatoLover22 hahahaha it tasted like potatoey and carroty pasta with a hint of nutritional yeast, which by the way, tastes nothing like cheese !!!

Favorite pasta shape is cascatelli 👍🏻
I had no idea ppl use nuts (cashews) in their mac & cheese
Do you have any suggestions for cheaper substitutes as appose to using tahini? Also awesome recipe, I really appreciate the simply healthy ingredients.
Vegan is always more expensive and leeser quality compared to the real thing
I absolutely LOVED this video ! You are so refreshing to watch and really like the simplicity of the instructions. Thanks for the informative description of ingredients as well, much appreciated!
Ughhhhh my mouth is drooling ... I shouldn’t watch these when I’m hungry 😓
OMG i just made this mac and cheese, no baked just like that but girl GOOD JOB!! I love it, my new most favourite food :D
Your videos changed
i need to know what knife you used on the carrot and potato !
1) Definitely like the overheads better. If the camera was more zoomed in on you instead of such a wide shot, it may be better as well.
2) I don't want my food to taste like wang. If I want to taste wang I know where to find it.
3) cavatappi but also shells, spirals, and cartoon characters. I miss those cartoon shaped pastas from my nonvegan days.
