The How to Bit
In a pan put some Olive Oil and your baby plum tomatoes, mushrooms, and onion with the garlic and mixed Italian Herbs into a pan - cook until soft.
In another pot cook your Macaroni in boiling water with a pinch of salt until soft
Pour out the water from the cooked Macaroni and add to the pasta the cooked tomato, onions, and mushrooms and mix
Add the Nutritional Yeast, Mustard, and Flora to the pot and stir over heat until it makes a sauce. If you want a thicker sauce you can add some cornflour and Oat Milk.
Place Mac and Cheese in a Serving dish - Grate your Vegan Cheese over the top and place under the grill until the cheese melts
