Lately I’ve been craving some of the EDS staples. Rather than creating new concepts, I personally love to revisit older recipes and tweak them to perfection whether it be thru images or flavor, I find it’s a win win. 

 

I’ll be honest, my strong suite is recipe development while my weakness is photography. I took a brief course at NYU, but it simply ran through the basics and left many unknowns after. That being said, photography has been a journey and I had to learn through trial and error what works and what doesn’t. Believe it or not, photography is everything. You could take a terrible recipe, but capture it in a way that draws people in. On the flip side, you could have an amazing recipe, but you can’t discern the quality, because of the underwhelming pictures. 

 

Simply put, photography is powerful and testing recipes multiple times is everything, and what I’m really enjoying right now! A better image or a single ingredient can alter an entire recipe. 

 

Back to THIS recipe from 2017!! Long before my culinary days, I loathed all things with heat. I have no idea why, but I found heat to just be overpowering for me. Fast forward to today, I crave all things with heat. Heat makes me slow down on the speed of eating so I savor each bite, it’s good for the metabolism, and it truly enhances the flavor of dishes just like salt!

 

Years ago when thinking of the next best recipe, I knew I had to do something buffalo, and the vegan Buffalo Mac + Cheese was born! Many times we create limitations with foods we love. However, if you enjoy the texture or flavor of something, take that and get creative, the options are endless with food.

What I love about this dish, is everything! It’s quick, easy, affordable, flavorful, fun, great for entertaining, has aesthetic appeal, can easily be made in bulk, you can add carrots for a nutrient and color boost, it’s perf for any season, non vegan approved, the breadcrumbs add additional texture, you can top with vegan blue cheese if you’re wanting to take this next level.
