Question:

Is there an ingredient you can add to WFPB Mac & Cheese that can give it a more cheesy flavor?

— Maria Allen

Answer:

Yes. Nutritional yeast is actually, uh, probably the go-to, to be able to get the cheesy flavor for whole food plant-based mac and cheese. Um, nutritional yeast is as that kind of umami flavor to it. Um, that, and a little bit of salt I think will help out quite a bit on the mac and cheese flavor that you're looking for there.
