Some yellow food

I grew cauliflower for the first time this year and opted for a yellow variety.  I roasted a head the other night and it was delicious.  Just a little olive oil, salt and pepper.

And September was Vegan MOFO (month of food), so the bloggers were hard at work churning out fun new recipes.  Vegan Yack Attack's theme was mac and cheese, which is a most noble endeavor, in my opinion.  I decided to give the Buffalo Chickpea Mac 'n Cheese a crack.

I found it to be quite delicious.  The recipe called for Teese, which made me wary because in past experience I didn't care for it and found it to have an odd taste.  But I bought the creamy cheddar vegan sauce and found it nearly perfect for this application.  It wasn't difficult at all to make and came together well.  The only other issue I had was with the ranch sauce, which called for plain vegan yogurt.  I can't find a plain unsweetened yogurt, so the ranch sauce had a slightly sweet taste to it which wasn't awful but I'd prefer less sweetness.  Next time, I might sub sour cream for the yogurt.  Or just more Vegenaise.  Can't go wrong there.

Anyway, definitely enjoyed this one and will make it again.  It's amazing that any of the roasted buffalo chickpeas made it into the dish.  Seriously addicting.  Way better pictures and the recipe can be had here.
