Veggie Mac and Cheese (Kid Pleaser):
30 min 10 min prep
4-6 servings
1 lb spiral shaped pasta
1/2 lb center-cut bacon, chopped into 1-inch pieces
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided (EVOO)
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 cup chicken broth
2 cups milk
2 cups sharp cheddar cheese, shredded and divided (yellow)
2 cups jalapeno jack cheese, shredded and divided
1 tablespoon spicy mustard
1 red bell pepper, chopped
2 medium zucchini, sliced into half moons
1 (10 ounce) box frozen peas
pepper, to taste
salt, to taste
1. Bring a large pot of water to boil.
2. Once water is boiling, add a pinch of salt and cook the pasta until done to ALMOST al dente, about 7 minutes depending on package directions (you want it a little undercooked).
3. Preheat broiler and set rack 12 inches from heat.
4. As the pasta is cooking, heat a deep, large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat with 1 tablespoon of EVOO and add the bacon.
5. Cook the bacon until crispy and golden brown.
6. Using a slotted spoon, remove the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate and hold.
7. Add another tablespoon EVOO to the skillet, 1 turn of the pan, then add onions and cook until tender, 4-5 minutes.
8. Sprinkle in flour and cook another minute or two before adding the chicken broth (it should look quite pasty and thick).
9. Whisk in milk and bring to a bubble, seasoning with salt and pepper, then stir in the mustard.
10. Reduce heat and add 1 1/2 cups of each cheese.
11. Stir to melt, 1 minute.
12. Adjust seasoning with mustard, salt and pepper, to your taste.
13. Drain pasta well.
14. Combine pasta, veggies, cheese sauce, and chopped parsley, then pour into large casserole and top with remaining cheese.
15. Transfer to broiler to melt and brown cheese, about 2 minutes, and serve.

Mac and cheese traditionally has no meat. The boxed stuff is pasta and cheddar powder and you add milk and butter. The homemade mac & cheese uses pasta, cheese, milk, butter, flour, and sometimes bread crumbs.
Just leave out the meat of any recipe you read.

Just don't use any meat products. Buy the macaroni, read the instructions, and you should be fine.
