You will Need:

3 cups macaroni pasta(Gluten free or normal)
hand full of bread crumbs (Optional)
2 tbsp Italian seasoning (Optional)

For the cheese sauce:

1 Onion
4 Cloves of Garlic
1 tbsp vegetable oil(or coconut oil)
1 Cup chopped Cauliflower
½ cup chopped Pumpkin

½ cup soaked cashews
The juice of 1 lemon
1 tbsp Tahini
1 tsp miso paste (Red or White)
1 tsp Dijon Mustard
1 tsp garlic powder
½ tsp turmeric
¼ tsp pepper
¼ tsp salt
1 cup of Plant milk – I used Soy
1/4 cup Nutritional yeast (optional)

(Note these are a lot of ingredients if you don't have them all thats fine just improvise or use less, just keeping in mind it might not taste as cheesy)

Step 1

First Pre heat your oven to 200 Celsius

Then set 2 pots of boiling water and cook your cauliflower and pumpkin until soft enough to blend
In the other pot cook your macaroni according to packet directions
Then heat oil in a pan and fry your onion and Garlic until lightly golden brown
