Special Diets:
Ingredients
- 1/2 pound dried spelt elbow macaroni
- 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 1/2 cup soymilk
- 2 tablespoons arrowroot
- 1/4 cup Parmesan-style rice cheese
- 4 slices American-style rice cheese
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Paprika
Method
Cook macaroni according to package directions.
Drain well and return to pot.
Stir in olive oil to prevent sticking. Set aside.
Combine soymilk with arrowroot in a medium saucepan, stirring until arrowroot is dissolved.
Cook over medium low heat until thickened, about 5 minutes.
Remove from heat and stir in the cheeses. This will melt into the soy milk mixture and will appear sticky.
Transfer cheese sauce to pot with macaroni and stir well.
Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle paprika over the top and serve.
