Vegetable Macaroni Cheese

 

 

 

 

It is meat free Monday again today.

• Cook required amount of macaroni according to instructions.
• Chop onion, garlic,mushrooms, spinach, leeks and herbs of your choice. I use sweet basil, oregano and Winter Savory.
• Microwave  for 3 minutes on high.
• Melt tablespoon butter with the chopped ingredients.
• Add flour to make a thick paste
• Add milk slowly, stirring to make a smooth sauce. (make the required amount according to how much macaroni is being cooked.)
• Cook in microwave a minute at a time stirring each minute, until the sauce is thick.
• Melt cheddar cheese in sauce.
• Mix with Macaroni.
• Sprinkle cheese on the top together with some slice tomato.
• For a non meat free option, add rashers of bacon.
• Grill in oven till brown.
