Macaroni Casserole (Cheese-less)

Preparation time: 45-60 minutes    Makes: 1 Casserole Dish   Preheat Oven: 350 F


Pasta:
3 cups noodles of choice
3 1/2 cups of water

Boil noodles of choice.  
I use a type of macaroni made of corn and quinoa (pictured left) but regular whole-wheat pasta  will work fine.


Sauce:
3 1/2 cups of water
1/2 cup of flour
1/2 cup of oil
1 tsp of salt
1 tsp of garlic salt
2 tsp of soy sauce
pinch of tumeric
1 cup of nutritional yeast flakes
Bread crumbs

-Bring water to a boil in a medium sized pot 
-Mix flour and oil in a separate small bowl
-Add salt, garlic salt, soy sauce and tumeric and mix well
-Add the mixture to the boiling water and whisk until it thickens
-Once thick, add yeast flakes and stir well

-Once the noodles and sauce are ready, spread the noodles in the bottom of a casserole dish
-Pour the sauce over the macaroni and stir together
-Put a thin layer of bread crumbs over the top
-Bake at for 15 minutes or until the bread crumbs are a golden brown
