NOTES

  • I like to use a Vitamix and leave the skin on the vegetables.
  • Can add herbs from garden to roasted veggies for extra yummy flavor.
  • Variation: if you are truly craving the cheese part of mac n’ cheese, you can always add some cheese, butter and milt (rather than coconut milk) to this mixture.
  • Extra sauce can be saved in mason jars and placed in freezer for 3 months.
