- I don't know how I've made it this far (as a vegan) without trying our lord and savior, Tabitha Brown's iconic vegan mac 'n' cheese recipe. Tab did not hold back on the vegan dairy, you will find vegan butter, cheese, yogurt, and MORE in this classic staple. Let's see if it's as fabulous as its creator! (recipe measurements at the bottom)

Good to know!
Me too!!!
same here!!
I still make her apple crisp every year! ❤️
My family is german and every year we make Spätzle for christmas (and dinner). It is a german egg noodle. For years after going vegan, I missed Spätzle so much so a little while ago, I decided to veganize it. And I made it better. This is also the opinion of my entire family who agree that my way is better. I’m going to leave the recipe and I hope anyone reading decides to give it a try. It’s really good.
Ingredients: 1 medium sweet potato (cooked and mashed), 3 just egg eggs (9 TBS), 1/2 cup unsweetened plant milk (I use soy), 2 cups white flour, 2 teaspoons salt, 4 TBS vegan butter, 2 TBS minced parsley, 1/8 tsp nutmeg
Instructions: Put a large pot of salted water to boil on the stove. Mix together mashed potato, salt, and just egg. Then add flour 1/2 cup at a time, mixing, until everything is well combined. Melt the vegan butter in a large skillet (I use a non stick one) and mix in the nutmeg. Turn heat off under the skillet and set it next to the pot of water. Once water is boiling, add a glug of neutral tasting oil to prevent sticking. Then take a potato ricer and add about 1/2 cup of the batter, and press it through into the pot of boiling water. Allow the noodles to cook in the water and separate them if they clump together. Once the noodles float, remove from the water with a slotted spoon and put them in the fry pan. Repeat until the batter is gone. Then stir fry the noodles on medium heat until they are golden brown (about 10/15 min). Mix in parsley and serve.
I really hope people try this recipe. Of all the things I’ve veganized, Spätzle is what I’m most proud of and it really is very delicious.
Hello another german here and I will 100% try your recipe :)
@@Evelyntheee yay! That makes me so happy to hear! I know potato isn’t traditional in Spätzle, but I added it so I didn’t have to use so much just egg. It worked well and it honestly improved the flavor a lot. I really hope you like it ☺️
I also just realized that I left out one ingredient in my original comment. I’ve just edited and it has the complete recipe now.
Where do you get justeggs from? I cannot find it here in Germany:(
@@leonie0398 Maybe you can use Greenforce Veganes Ei, they're a German brand and have a lot less artificial stuff than Just Egg (can't get Just Egg in the Netherlands either btw, /waves to the neighbors).
I’m German I will try it. Still waiting for someone to make a vegan grüne soße
I am not a vegan, but I love your videos. As a lacotse intolerant person, many vegan dishes are the better option for my gut and you make it fun and accessible to make them!
That makes me so happy💚
I'm not vegan either, but I love all of these recipe and ranking videos
I'm not vegan either, but I watch everyone of her videos lol.
Same. I also appreciate the dairy free alts and they are fun recipes.
I second this! I love Mac and cheese but my lactose intolerance stomach doesn’t like it. I’m excited to make this
I love Gaz Oakley's mac and cheese--it has breadcrumbs AND mushrooms and tastes just like non-vegan mac. You should definitely try it out!
ohhhh okay i'm intrigued
I, love Gaz's Recipes ❤
OMGGG I need to try this!!
I need you and Tab to collaborate again. That was my favorite Tasty video ever. My 2 favorite vegans in one video, yes please!
Okay, I made this last night, it was ABSOLUTELY FIRE!!!! Literally best Mac & cheese ever, let alone Vegan Mac! I added a little cayenne to the sauce, and a dash of MSG, and holy crap. It slaps!! And pretty easy! Thanks for sharing Merle. Stoked that you’re going to be uploading more often. 🙌🏼. Happy holidays.
I actually use a tip from an old tasty recipe of yours for butternut squash mac - poke the butternut squash with a fork then microwave it for a bit to soften it up, it makes it sooo much easier to peel and cut.
ahhh it seems i've forgotten my roots....
👀
This looks great but I would’ve loved to see more seasoning go into it, like old bay seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder , a bit salt and fresh cracked black pepper!
That's where YOU come in. Add all the spices you want when you make it.
That's your business!
I'd love a seasonal cooking series, especially if a farmers market visit is included.
I LOVE Caps for Sale!!! 😭😭😭 Thank you for mentioning it no one ever knows what book I’m talking about if I mention it
A CLASSIC!
Merle and Tabitha- 2 queens of vegan cuisine ❤❤
i didnt comment last time on the camera angle but this one is so much better! love the closer vibes & cozy lights!!
I enjoy Tabitha Brown’s garlic all purpose seasoning! It’s great paired with some mushroom umami seasoning.
Also, loving the added string lights! Very well done episode from mac and cheese (which I was looking for a good recipe) to the lighting and angles! 😊
Know what I’m getting tomorrow, thank you!
Sometimes you can find butternut squash pre-cubed, in the freezer section of the grocery store. So that might be an option if you really don’t like handling a whole squash. It’s understandable; they get sticky and gooey when you peel them. Also, just go to any coffee shop or restaurant, and the chances are very good that they have used coffee grounds that they would give you.
Another day, another fantastic video. Thank you for the knowledge. I'll be returning for more in the future.
Aw thank you! glad you enjoyed it :)
those little lights are definitively a game changer 💡💛 very cozy
I would absolutely love a seasonal recipe series! Something I want to be more versed in, so I would appreciate the content !
LOL I love your description of orecchiette pasta. They do look like caps, but in Italian it means "little ears!" And a 'ch' in Italian is a 'k' sound! Just your friendly Italian here
AHHH i'm learning and growing! also LMAO to little ears! That's hilarious and mildly creepy, but i like it!
You are much braver than I.....butternut squash is available in the frozen aisle....much safer to work with
yeahhhhhhh... that was totally an option that i missed
Oh my gosh I always forget frozen butternut exists! Haha. But every rare time I DO remember is much appreciated.
Rainbow Plant Live just did a Video with Butternut Squash. And she shows how it is easier to cut them.
nowwww you tell me
@@MerleONeal You just put it in the Microwave (prick some holes) for a few minutes. Wait a little and then cut and peel it.
Way easier.
I think I saw this the first time on the Martha Steward Channel.
LOVE THE SEASONAL COOKING CONCEPT 🎉🎉🎉❤
Thank you for changing the video angle. Love this new background! Will definitely try the recipe
Another way you could go about the butternut squash is to half it, scoop the seeds, and simply roast it until tender then scoop the inside out of the skin. Might have a little more flavor.
But this looks absolutely fire, thanks for sharing!!
A seasonal cooking series would be amazing!
I remember your video with her! I’ve been a fan of her ever since!
ooo looks amazing! and ooo yeah festive season!! I also hate chopping butternuts, saw a tip to microwave them for 2 mins first to make them easier to chop and have started doing that
Her recipe is my favorite mac and cheese recipe. I was lucky enough to find pre-cut butternut squash.
I am from Austria.
Last year I did a Chestnut-Lentil-Walnut-Mushroom Wellington with Red Cabbage, Knödel (it's like Stuffing but as a Dumpling) and Mushroom Sauce.
sounds delicious
Tell me more about the Wellington! What was the process of making it like? I don't need a full recipe, I'm just having a hard time imagining how it was made and where the ingredients are in the dish!
This angle is the best so far! Happy holidays! ❤
LOVE this angle! Feels super open and airy
This made me hungry!! I love Tabitha Brown, she's such an amazing soul. Awesome you got to meet her!!
i would LOVE the farmers market idea. I see so much pretty veg that I just don't know what to do with so I don't get it. You could help bring attention to some unsung hero in the food world, bring more love to stuff people might be intimidated by! Great idea, can't wait for more videos
Rainbow Plant Life just did a vid using butternut squash and her hack is to microwave the butternut squash for two minutes before peeling/slicing. Softens it enough to make it easier to work with!
Yes, do a Tabitha Brown ranking video, love those
OHHHHHHH mmmy opening shot!! WHAT!!
Also love the new shot and lights!!!
THANK YOU MARK! you gotta try this mac n cheese
omg i remember the book caps for sale!! my aunt used to read that to me
I have a few squash that I grew this summer that need eating. This couldn't have come at a better time. Thanks for testing this one out. I think another "holiday" themed video that would be so awesome is vegan cookies/cakes. We do a cookie tray at our family gathering and with one V & GF, one lacto/ovo vegetarian, and the rest of the family with no dietary preference - sweets are always a hard one.
I would totally make this with precut butternut squash. I made mac n cheese for thanksgiving and I literally used the recipe on the back of the elbow macaroni box, just subbed vegan butter cheese and soy milk. Used a flour roux. It was amazing!
LOL, nice f-bomb on the squash bit. I'm impressed. 🤣
This has been my go to vegan mac recipe for 2 years, and i agree with you about baking it. I made the mistake of baking it to get extra fancy for thanksgiving and it dried it out so bad :(
That looks tasty!!! I recently tried a new restaurant last week where their subtitle was "Eat More Plants". I tried their nachos and this video is giving me vibes about the cheese. Thanks Merle. Love to see your video, and I like the other angle. It's nice to spice it up, once in a while. 👍
The compost tip is a great one! As someone who got a new Nama juicer this year...the fruit flies are vicious 👀 The Figgin Awesome hoodie is amazing by the way.
YES! Please do a seasonal series! Inspire us all please!😂
any series you make im watching ☺
I'd love to see the seasonal cooking series!
ok while we're on the topic of cheese, there is this guy called Chef TJ here on youtube that makes some magical stretchy mozarella with fermented wheat starch and I would really like to try it out, but I don't really trust myself with the fermentation process...so I would really like to see you give it a go and share your thoughts!
I saw that video. Best stretchy vegan cheese I have seen. I'm surprised saucestache hasn't made it yet.
THAT BOOK!!!!! Omg that book! Yes!!!!
My mom puts a dash of hot sauce in her macaroni and cheese and I swear it improves the flavor so much. That might make it even better :)
Caps for sale!! Loved that book hahaha
And love the videos 💜💜would be super into some seasonal cooking inspo!
Merle! Such a good video! I think when you do these kinds of videos and you have an idea to make it better, you should totally go for it once you've completed the original recipe! I totally want to see you add bread crumbs to this hahah.
Love love love the seasonal recipes idea!
What's with peeling a raw squash? So much easier to bake it in big chunks and then scoop it out.
Hey Merle, you're my girl. Thanks for the video. I can totally relate to the prep of the butternut squash. Whenever I have to peel one, I also struggle through it with a peeler and a knife - and the worst part is definitely the squash hands afterwards. To combat this, I will typically take frequent breaks from handling the squash to rinse my hands.
Would love to see a seasonal cooking series from you. Coming from a meat eater, I would love to see more recipes on your channel that aren't solely replicating meat but a way to make vegan food just taste good in general. Different ways of cooking veg or including it that would completely change its taste. For example, I'm not a fan of most mushrooms i've tried, is there a dish that rids them of that earthly dark flavour, disguising it entirely?
Yes to seasonal cooking idea!
First one here😎❤️ love you Merle! You’re my therapy after a long work day
I've never commented on your videos. But I definitely had to hop on here and say I'd watch your seasonal cooking series! 10/10 video. What a treat!
Yay! Thank you!
I heard microwaving butternut squash makes it a bit easier to cut and work with!
I pronounced "Daiya" incorrectly for years, but it's actually pronounced "Day-a". Like have a nice day-a!
Kia ora from New Zealand! Our favourite holiday dessert is Pavlova with lots of yummy seasonal fruit as it is summer for us! Would love to see you make it vegan with aquafaba :)
just made this for xmas eve dinner. always used a cashew recipe before. this recipe is insane. big shouts outs to tabitha and you
Yes to seasonal cooking series!!
How did i just find your channel !?!?😳 I'm so glad to have stumbled upon your Jamie Oliver shepherds pie recipe taste/cook test, I was instantly sold and subscribed, now to binge all your other videos .
I love that video with you and Tabitha! I watch it every now and then because the vibes from both of you was soooo good in that video. All the food y'all ate in that video looked so amazing too! I love watching Tabitha's videos too because she makes such delicious looking food.
Definitely liked the corner angle; much more interesting.
I’ve heard rocking the squash 🎸 when cutting helps. Like instead of pressing down on the knife you hold the knife more still and roll the squash.
For New Year's Day, my dad makes corned beef and cabbage. I can't remember, but it's either an Irish or an Amish tradition.
Also, given your love of Rocky Horror, I think a vegan meatloaf recipe would be funny
Corned Beef and Cabbage is Irish
love your videos. very human and relatable
Yes. I would love seasonal videos !!
Tabitha food line review?! Yess!
Superb and awesome work 👏 👍 God bless you 😊
Thank you! Cheers!
you could make one of the Cheap Lazy Vegan's korean dishes? I'd love for my two fave vloggers do a collab 😊
Yes more seasonal recipes please!! And no one ever talks about the struggle of cutting butternut squash… the worst vegetable to cut ever 😫
it sUCKSSSSS
I love your videos because they help me sneak veggies into my family’s food! This I feel will be another great one! 🤣❤️
Looked creamy and delicious. I personally would have added a little lemon juice and salt along with a little yeast flakes. That does look good tho. Thanks for sharing. You have a great personality and your fun. Keep it going!!
Aw thank you
For butternut squash: pierce it and microwave it for a couple of minutes! Helps a TON!
Thanks for uploading, this year I lost some my family members this year might be sadder this holiday season
sending you love and a big hug
@@MerleONeal thanks and have a great holiday season
merle ngl im tired as hell lol and the Mac and cheese shot in the beginning looks so good right now . also love the energy in this video !! the lights look so cool
you got this!! make the mac! make the mac! Glad you like the lights :)
@@MerleONealbased off of your reaction at the end i might have to !! thanks for spreading this awesome recipe cuz this looks amazing :D
This is pretty similar to the Thug Kitchen recipe that uses potato & carrots simmered down and then blended with a bunch of nooch and other flavours, then their recipe calls for spaghetti squash just folded in... It's one of my faves, the book automatically opens to that page lol
This looks absolutely divine. 😍
Have you ever thought about doing another mukbang with Aria? I think you guys did one before but a long time ago. That would be fun!!
I love the seasonal cooking idea!!!!
I need to try this ASAP
I would love love love for you to try making Koshary, a notional Egyptian meal - Yes, it is vegan! (unfortunately not a holiday meal), recipes differ between households and I would love to share mine!
Thanks for the valuable contents😊
Mark from Sauce Stache just gave you a shoutout! Let’s go RUclips do yo thang! Let’s blow Merle up! (in a good way)
“Like so like that” I had a thought the other day. I actually felt sorry for people who didn’t know who Tabitha brown was. She’s a warm hug. She’s wholesome. She’s everything.
The closer angle is 🙌🙌
I’m not vegan but have lactose sensitivity and am currently trying to incorporate more veggies/fiber in my diet I already try not to eat a lot of red meat and I notice a difference when I only indulge on occasion. I say all this to say I have a big love of gardening and farmers markets and love to create foods out of seasonal crops so PLEASE make a series for it I’d love it ! If you need any ideas or want to do FaceTime cooking sessions I’m all ears!
Hey hey! Have adored your content for a long time now. I love cooking, i suggest looking into a cabbage peeler for larger produce. Makes a world of difference for peeling melons, pumpkins, or squash. ❤
Great review❤
OMG FINALLY A VEGAN MAC N CHEESE WITHOUT NUTS!! I’m allergic to tree nuts so the cashew dairy substitution in most cheesy recipes is always disappointing. This looks delicious, I’ll have to try it out. Thanks!!
hope you love it!
I’m not vegan, but I am incorporating some vegan meals into my diet this year for health reasons. I’d love to know what herbs & spice you used so I can make this recipe. It looks delicious & your facial expression when you took your first bite said it all😄
Please try Indian Pav Bhaji, or paneer/tofu 65 or upma or samosa or onion bhaji.. list is limitless. 😅
What are the “herbs and spices” called for in the recipe? Btw, just found your channel a few weeks ago. Brand new vegan here. You’re fucking rad.
This looks very yummy!
OHHHH MY GOD this is so off-topic but my dad used to read Caps For Sale every night and do voices and I absolutely loved it 😂😂 really is a great book -- also fantastic video and recipe, will definitely try to make at home... and risk the squash hands
YESSSSSS it's such a damn classic, love that your dad was 100% committed, that makes all the difference. Now I want to reread it lmao. and maybe just wear some gloves bc lemme tell you the squash hands SUCK
the metal scraping (spoon on pot) killed me internally, but the food looks good!
seasonal cooking videos!!!!
OMG I happen to have all the ingredients in my fridge ! Cooking that tonight :D
YESSSS
