Make our mac + greens

by Flo Cornish

2min read

It's here: MAC AND GREENS! Early this year we set out on the mission to make our Cashew Mac even more delicious and nutrition packed than before. After testing countless recipes, we launched Tasteclub - inviting allplants customers to taste, test and help create a fresh take on our Mac. They made some brilliant suggestions, like keeping the tomatoes and making the sauce even cheesier, so really, you have them to thank. Here's how we make it.
