Growing up as kid I always loved mac and cheese. When I became a vegetarian i found a simple mac and cheese recipe with tofu. It is now one of my favorite dishes and I always enjoy when my mom cooks it for me. The recipe is simple and can even be made in a college dorm. The most difficult part is finding all the ingredients, but once you have all of them it is easy to make
