Ingredients

  • 12 oz uncooked macaroni (about 3 cups)
  • 2 cups unsweetened, plain almond milk
  • 1 1/2 cups water
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp each garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika
  • 3 oz shredded reduced-fat mozzarella cheese
  • 6 slices Velveeta singles
  • 1 tsp yellow mustard
  • ground pepper to taste

Instructions

  • In a large pot, combine pasta, almond milk, water, and seasoning. Bring to a boil and lower heat to a simmer. Cook until pasta is just done, anywhere from 5-10 minutes depending on your brand of pasta
  • You want to have a little bit of liquid left when the pasta is done, so if it gets too dry while cooking, add in a splash of water. 
  • When pasta is done, remove from heat and add in cheese. Mix until melted, then mix in mustard.
  • If the sauce is too stiff for you, add in more almond milk, one tablespoon at a time, until you get the consistency you like. 
  • Top with fresh ground pepper. Taste and add in more salt if needed. Serve immediately.
