Loading... Please wait...Better than cheddar, but without cheese. Creamy flavors of nutritional yeast, parsley, and sun dried tomato with whole wheat pasta. A personal favorite! Makes 2.5 cups per serving. Vegan.

This is not the most calorie dense meals you can pick from the line up, but it for a weekend trip, so no big deal. I enjoyed the taste and found it very filling. If you are used to whole wheat pasta you will like the taste and texture. I would order this one again.

I liked the taste just fine. It could use some more vegetables, like chopped broccoli. Maybe even cashews for extra heartiness.

I was really looking forward to trying this. Unfortunately, it fell far short of my expectations. Even after the 10 minutes specified in the instructions, the pasta was undercooked. The smell and taste were, I'm sorry to say, extremely unpleasant, with an insistent odor of urine. My daughter, as big a mac and cheese fan as you'll find, agreed.
From Outdoor Herbivore - Update 1/12/2013: Sorry you didn't like the taste or smell, David. We use Nutritional Yeast as a cheese substitute. Those that are not familiar with this ingredient may find the taste/smell to be odd. The yeast we use is a complete protein and is high in Vitamin B12 (lacking in most vegan diets).

Sorry, none of the 4 of us liked this meal, the flavor or the consistency.

Will definitely have this on my next backpacking trip. It's filling and delicious.

I was skeptical about how good this would taste, since I've never eaten anything based on nutritional yeast before.
Shared this dish on a recent overnight trip with a friend.
While you would never mistake this for good old K***t Mac & Cheese in the blue box, we really like the taste.
I'll buy this again!
