Mac and Cheese Mushroom Stroganoff

This delicious creamy mushroom filled stroganoff is very similar to a beef stroganoff. One of the key reasons this will taste like a beef stroganoff is because mushrooms have a savory flavor, associated with meats, called umami. When looking to replace beef or any meat in a meal I would highly recommend trying mushrooms, this umami flavor is considered the fifth flavor and is known for its similar taste to meat. Mushrooms are also a very high and natural source for Potassium. By increasing your mushroom intake you will notice a decrease in symptoms of obesity, diabetes, and heart diseases, It also reduces your risk for cancer as it is high in Anti-oxidants, Selenium, and Vitamin D. For this meal you will need the following ingredients... Ingredients  3 cups of uncooked elbow macaroni or small shells 4-5T of lentils  2T of  Nutritional   yeast.  A dash of salt and pepper 1t of cumin  1t of ground mustard 1t of turmeric (for color)  4 cloves of garlic  2T of olive oil  1T
