RE: Amy's Ric Mac w/ non-dairy cheeze

[Guest guest]

Ha! It wasn’t bad, I actually did like, I just like the “real

dairy” one better. J I did not regret the $3.47 I spent on it. Maybe some follower

Celiacs who cannot do dairy will be able to review it better or compare it to

something else.

, I had to laugh when I saw your

recommendation, “I would get it again.” I guess that is better than, “I

had to throw it out after one bite,” but not exactly a glowing review. I

suppose it’s hard to reproduce cheese without any dairy. I always think

that they should just stop trying to make meat and dairy substitutes and just

concentrate on making good vegan food. How about rice macaroni with

shiitake-hazelnut sauce? Or tomato-basil sauce with a really good olive

oil?

I tried it and liked it. The consistency of the " cheese " is off, but the taste

is pretty good. When you go gluten free, you learn to give consistency a little

leeway.

Today I picked up

Amy’s Rice macaroni with non-dairy cheese from Whole Foods in

Capitola. I can eat dairy and normally get the GF one with regular cheese

but they didn’t have it. I never get the soy cheese stuff, b/c I

don’t do well with soy products. This however is made from Daiya

vegan cheddar which is (water, tapioca, arrowroot flour, safflower oil, coconut

oil, pea protein, salt, yeast, veggie glycerin, xanthan gum, rice extract,

enaymes, bacterial cultures, citric acid and annatto.)

There’re no soy in it at all. On the box it says “gluten

free, non-dairy, soy free.” I would get it again.

I can't eat dairy or gluten. I make my own mac & cheese using TJ rice pasta and

yeast. It's easy, and way ceeaper than any packaged food. here's the recipe:

rice pasta (whatever shape you like), cooked in the normal way

for 1-2 servings of pasta, i use:

about 1/4 cup nutritional yeast

pinch of salt

pinch of onion powder (optional)

big pat of butter or margarine (I use Earth Balance)

put the yeast, butter & salt in a small bowl. When the pasta is done, take some

of the hot water out of the pot and pour it over the yeast. Make sure it's hot

enough to melt the butter. Stir well until smooth. Pour over pasta and mix

just before serving.

Sometimes I add broccoli or asparagus to the boiling pasta water. I also like

it with a hotdog cooked in with the pasta.

btw, I saw soy-free Earth Balance at my local Hippie Store yesterday.
