I have a very gracious friend who is also a chef (I know, lucky me, right?) and decided to take an interest in what I can and cannot eat. So this gentleman whipped up a recipe that rivals the most aggravatingly splendid “normal” mac and cheese dish… this takes a little bit of work, but its a gourmet treat and completely dairy and gluten-free!

Friendly Mac and Cheese
Ingredients:
1 3/4 cup rice milk
6 egg yolks
4 oz tofutti “better than cream cheese”
2 T parmesan-flavored grated soy topping
1 bag brown rice pasta elbows
salt/pepper to taste
Directions:
1. Bring large pot of water to boil (and cook pasta according to instructions whilst making the rest of the recipe, but do NOT rinse…)
2. Whisk milk/yolks in medium saucepot and heat mixture gradually over medium heat while whisking until yolks barely begin to scramble
3. Place mixture into blender, add cheese topping, salt, pepper, and blend
4. Drain pasta and combine with mixture
5. Add more topping, if desired!
Thank you, Jason!

Dairy and gluten free mac & cheese…who’d of thunk it!
Sounds like it might be okay though. I’ve a friend who can’t do gluten either and I think she’ll be thrilled to see your site!
I left a shoe response to your comment on my blog that basically goes like this: go to a good running shoe store! There’s more to it, but that’s the crux of it!

This sounds really good…especially for a little boy who wants to eat what his older siblings are having.
Have you tried it yet? How is the texture?
Thanks for posting these great recipes!

hey! i haven’t, but i really trust Jason, and he said it was great! i haven’t tried it yet because i’ve been eating “basic” foods – unmixed, and “Raw” – because of how sick i’ve been, but i will soon go back to eating things like this, i hope…
