this wasn’t the same as typical box mac and cheese. it had a bit more protein, yes, but the chickpea pasta tasted a little bit less real than regular noodles (if you know you know), and the sauce wasn’t quite there with a “cheddar” flavor. i found it to be a little dry and slightly grainy as well.
to be honest, did not have butter on hand, so that may have led to some of the dryness. that would likely not fix the taste though, and i feel like it just wasn’t quite there in terms of cheddar cheese. there was something a little too fake about it, even when i tried to drown it in nutritional yeast.
despite it not tasting quite real, there was a nice protein boost from the chickpea pasta and it was nice to actually have box mac and cheese… i’d probably purchase it again on sale.
