Howtodoatl, a big thank you for posting this video. After learning about the Soul Vegetarian Cookbook/Restaurant years ago, I'll finally visit the Atlanta restaurant later on this month during my travel! Vegetarian food has come a long way, hasn't it!? I will definitely try this recipe and come back to tell everyone about my experience with the restaurant as well as my attempt to re-create this classic dish. Thanks again.
SHALOM SHALOM. I ATE AT THE ABERNATHY? RESTURAUNT AND IT WAS FIRE I HAD THIRDS CANT WAIT TO GRADUATE JUST SO I CAN WRAP MY LIPS AROUND THIS MAC, AND CHEESE. TODAH RABBAH YAH FOR VEGAN CHEESE,YUMMY TO MY TUMMY. YAHKHAI!!!!!!!
I live in Atlanta and I'm vegan. I've visited Soul Veg in the West End. Their Mac and Cheese, without a DOUBT, is one of the best mac and cheeses out there. And I don't mean, one of the best compared only to other vegan mac and cheeses, I mean of ALL mac and cheeses sold any any or the soul restaurants in Atlanta and here we KNOW soul food. It was VERY delicious. I was transitioning at the time to Veganism from eating dairy and eggs and I was so happy to have something this good out the gate.
Beautiful recipe! I love how attention is given to wholesome ingredients--whole wheat pasta, organics--in addition to the food being vegan. Soul Vegetarian, you all need to open up in Vancouver, BC, please! And I am making this recipe. Yum!
I'm a Pescetarian, but I lean vegan. I understand that animal slaughter is a way of life for most people, I choose not to eat pork, chicken, or beef and the way the animal is treated has a little something to do with it, but not entirely. I don't hate meat eaters nor do I dislike them. I wasn't always a pescetarian, but I just hope people will wake up and realize what that stuff is doing to us. It tastes great, I'll give you that, but is it worth it? Overgrazing is killing the planet as well.
@KelferMookie I didn't either and I worked right at Sevananda over there. I go to the one at west end as it's close to my house but I'm DEF going to try the other one too.
i eat at the soul vegetarian in tallahassee and i LOVE THEIR FOOD... i actually had some of the mac and cheese an hour ago... is there a way though to avoid the soybean oil for the fat content? any substitutes or alternatives?
@scylla I didn't know they had a soul veg in Tally!!!! I'm going to HAVE to checked that out when i visit my friend who lives there. Thanks for the info!
Zacoor! Much props! So he adds mustard ay? The way they make the soy cheese at Tallahassee's Soul Vegetarian is completely different-- which of course would explain why the ATL Mac n Cheese and Tally Mac n Cheese taste so different.
I got to come check this delicious veggie spot out when I'm in the A. I been a vegetarian for 2 years now. Thanks bruh. Keep up the good work. One love.
Vegans choose plant base without dairy for compassionate reasons. Most grew up eating traditional cows milk mac and cheese. The desire to eat comfort familiar foods is innately human. To find a substitute that causes no harm to any sentient beings is not difficult to understand. Ninety percent of cows slaughtered are dairy cows. After they can no longer produce milk they are killed off. Their babies stolen from them at birth, male calves are killed off and become veil. No thank you to dairy.
@Veganchef101 Sorry but I'm not vegan for the reasons you are. I have the perspective of growing up on a farm where animals were raised for food. I feel no guilt about it nor should I. I'm a vegan for health reasons solely. I feel compassion for animals but don't look back in guilt nor judge those who eat meat or cheese or milk etc. It's best you not assume or paint the reasons for veganism with a broad brush because I am not the only one who is one for the reasons I've stated.
Nutritional yeast is really delicious... once you've brainwashed yourself into believing that nutritional yeast is really delicious.
This looks vile. I'll never understand why vegans - MUCH more so than vegetarians - have to make "fake" versions of non-vegan dishes, and this looks like some of the worst I've ever seen.
@GrigoriSom Have you tried it yet? How would you know if you like it or not? It takes 21 days for your taste buds to adjust at the most. I had no problem going vegan. The problem that vegans/vegetarians have with meat isn't necessarily the taste. Though that is sometimes the case like i never really had a taste for ham or fish. We avoid these animal products is because of where it comes from...an animal. I can't speak for all vegans but for me i think that every animal deserves a right to life.
@koviack Predators in the natural world, actually protect herbivore species, by avoiding overpopulation that would cause harm to their environment and wipe out the a lot of animal populations due to starvation.Plus,they are part of the very complex natural selection system.
That is not the case in our farms. We breathe weak, easily diseased animals, that require large amounts of antibiotics to live and are fast grown with hormones, in concentration camps. The perfect combination for new viruses.
@caddielook2 i happen to live on a ranch and i can tell you right now and here i don't coddle my animals, nor would I want to eat the weak ones..(they die, the elements get them) You are what you eat, and I want to eat the biggest meanest dinosaur chickens possible
@caddielook2 it would be too labor intensive to lock all my animals up in concentration camps, I fence them in like jews and even give their respective areas nicknames, like "dachau" for my goats, "da cow" hahahha get it? Treblinka for my chickens, Sobibor for the ducks, etc Don't worry, though, Auschwitz has an olympic sized swimming pool ^_^
@GrigoriSom It's because most people that decide to go vegan do so, not because they don't like the taste of meat, eggs or dairy, but because of the desire not to do harm to other living beings; and the disastrous consequences of the meat/dairy/egg industries. I love the taste of meat, eggs and dairy, and grew up on all those products daily. I gave it all up for moral reasons. So if people are able to eat similar products without harming other animals, why not?
@RoseLeeMusic88 So, you acknowledge that you're denying yourself something you "love", and rather than search out humane alternatives to factory animal products (and these options are increasingly easier to find), you'll eat overly synthetic substitutes? I'm really not trying to be harsh, but there is NO similarity in these products. This is completely reliant on soybean vegetable oil; do you really want to be eating this?
@GrigoriSom Well, i choose to try and not eat animal products because I don't think those products are ours to consume (even if it's "humane"). There is no need for our human bodies to drink/eat dairy products. Cows produce milk for their calves only, not for humans. That's why cows can only produce milk when they are pregnant. So in my opinion, it's not "natural" for humans to eat dairy. I realize this type of food is probably not the healthiest, but its not like i would eat only this =)
Sea salt and table salt have the same basic nutritional value — both mostly consist of two minerals — sodium and chloride. However, sea salt is often marketed as a more natural and healthy alternative. The real differences between sea salt and table salt are in their taste, texture and processing, not their chemical makeup.
I went to The Soul Veg #2 restaurant today and was very skepitcal about the mac-chz, but it was totally awesome. I took some home to my daughter who also loved it. The hams and collared were also exceptional. Thanks for the informative video.
Nearly all soybeans grown in the USA are GM. Thank Monsanto and corrupt politicians who would sell their soul for the right to kneel at the feet of Monsanto.
