And then came Daiya cheese. No, this isn't an ad for Daiya. But, it is the first cheese of its type that really has taste, and melts, etc. No dairy, no gluten and no soy.
So, here's the recipe - it's just adapted from a typical cookbook recipe.
I promise, this will work. Enjoy.
Mac n Cheese
- 1 cup cooked rice elbow macaroni (I use Tinkyada)
- ¼ cup finely chopped onion
- 1 tablespoon margarine (Try the Earth Balance – RED tub vegetarian)
- 1 tablespoon tapioca or corn starch
- Dash black pepper
- 1 ¼ cup Rice Milk
- 2 cups shredded American/cheddar cheese (Daiya)
Cook rice macaroni according to directions.
In a saucepan, cook onion in margarine until tender. Stir in flour and pepper.
Add rice milk.
Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly.
Add cheese. Stir until melted.
Stir macaroni into cheese.
Transfer to a 1 quart casserole.
Bake uncovered in 350 degree oven for about 20-25 minutes – until bubbly.

I wish we could use the Daiya cheese but I think that's the one that has the sesame in it.....soon hopefully.
Oh my... I am so excited I might not be able to sleep tonight! Through the years, I have overcome almost all recipe conversion obstacles... except for cheese. Could my prayers be answered right now? Right here?
We'll see. I have to get my hands on this Daiya first.
Thanks for the post. Glad to see you are still blogging. :)
We doubled the pasta and it still seemed a little heavy on the cheese. Also, it seemed a little "gummy." We used So Delicious Coconut Milk instead of the rice milk...maybe that's why? Overall, though, it was tasty. Thanks!
This sounds awesome! I'm still trying to get my hands on some Daiya, I would love to add cheese back into my daughter's diet..have heard it is the best! Come check out my blog too! I specialize in GFCF baking...www.birdandherramblings.blogspot.com ;-)) and check out www.autspot.com if you haven't already for great Autism community support, great resources & groups there..have a beautiful day!

My son received an ELISA score of .413 for tomatoes. Since he can't eat tomatoes (along with gluten, casein, and a whole host of things), Ketchup, pizza sauce, etc. are out.
Do you have any recipes to make a sauce that may taste close to tomatoe sauce that does not include tomatoes? Thanks.
yes, we have also found Daiya cheese. We love it! It has given us back GFCF pizza and we make a cheese sauce for on top of broccoli & cauliflower. Life is good!
Nice to see you writing again. Your blog was the one that first gave us any hope of eating baked goods again. Thanks~!

It's been four months since we've had Mac and cheese( it used to be a weekly staple in our home). When I saw this recipe I made it right away! The kids LOVED it!! It's very super chessey!
Does anyone know if you can get the Daiya cheese in Canada?
I've been craving for some macaroni since last week! I think this recipe is a good idea for lunch tomorrow! I'll follow your tips. You know, I'm looking for more foods which are nutritious. I become aware about the foods that I'm eating because I've undergone breast implants in Los Angeles last year. I want to maintain my shape that's why I'm too conscious about the foods.
ok, WHERE do you find this type of cheese? I'm giddy with excitement about it! This is my son's favorite food and one he asks for frequently (when he actually vocalizes this far). I've tried a bunch of "no cheese, no gluten" mac & cheese but yuck yuck yuck so far. Let me know, this is exciting!!!
Just reading looking at the recipe makes my mouth water! Not only is it delicious, but it's healthy as well! This is certainly going to help those who are in a healthy diet right now. I wish I could try this at home, too.
i have seen this cheese at the Real canadian superstore in ontario- i dont know if that is helpful to you or not! goodluck...
Is there anywhere in the philippines could I find this Daiya cheese. My son loves cheese and he also likes macaroni. He will surely love this.Thanks a lot.
And also the margarine, will any brand do or do I have to look for an specific brand.
HI, I just joined this community. I m from China. I like this forum.......hope to learn lot of things here ;-)

Hello, I wanted to share my story about my son Troy who was diagnosed with ADHD and anxiety. We didn't want to put him on medication, so we tried supplements and a gluten free casein free diet. This has done wonders for him. So far it's completely managed without any need for medication. Here is a link to my blog of our story and some recipes:
