Macaroni "Cheese" with Bacon

A great dairy free alternative to Macaroni Cheese, 
and much cheaper than any of the recipes out there with Nutritional Yeast in them!



Serves 3-4
Cost Approx: £1

Ingredients:

1tbsp dairy free margarine
3 tbsp flour
1l soy milk
2tbsp mustard
seasoning
1 pack smoked bacon, chopped and cooked
1 pack penne pasta, cooked 

Method

Make a bechamel sauce with the first 4 ingredients.
(follow below if you've never made bechamel before)
Melt dairy free marg in a pan
Add flour, mix in flour
Gradually add soy milk, stirring well with a whisk each time to avoid lumps
NB: if you get lumps, they are easily eradicated by forcing the sauce through a sieve.
Once all milk is added, bring to a boil, then let simmer
Add mustard and seasoning to taste.
The mustard will thicken the sauce quickly, so watch that.

Combine pasta, sauce and bacon in an ovenproof dish
Bake @ 200C for around 1/2 an hour, until the top is nice and crispy.
