Fill a large pot with water and salt and bring to a boil. I hope you enjoy my creation, whether you just like mac’n’cheese or you have a dietary restriction like me!ġ 80z pkg elbow macaroni (or whatever noodle you desire – I also enjoy penne, shells and scooby-doo noodles)Ģ tbsp lactose-free butter or margarine (so far I’ve only found lactose-free margarine to buy, but I’ve made my own lactose-free butter)Ģ cups + 1 cup shredded lactose-free cheeseġ. The biggest difference I noticed was the roux browned much easier and quicker than margarine did. It made a huge difference in this recipe, however I’ve always used vegan Becel margarine before and it tasted fine too. I also used real butter today, because I made my own lactose-free butter the other day from Lactaid treated whipping cream. You could even use soy milk if you wanted.
I’ve used many different varieties of milk that have all turned out well though – the whipping cream just makes things creamier. Tonight I used a sharp cheddar, but I’ve made this recipe with gouda, finlandia and swiss cheeses as well and all were good! This time I used half whipping cream treated with Lactaid drops, and half Lactaid skim milk. Mine will have a white cheese sauce, as the only cheese I can get that is lactose-free is white. This mac and cheese can be made with many variations to suit your dietary needs, or what products you’re able to find at the store. I think I’ve finally made my best version, and I’ll now share it with you all on the internet.

The recipe I’ve arrived at is an amalgamation of many, many different recipes for macaroni and cheese I’ve read and just simple trial and error. It’s taken me many tries to get the perfect thick cheesiness into the sauce, to have the perfect al dente noodle, and to have the perfect cheesy crunch on top.

Being lactose intolerant makes eating mac’n’cheese made by anyone else impossible, so I’ve had to learn how to make this dish on my own. It’s one of the first things I think to make when I’m hungry.
