  • Pasta: Lupin Flour, Fava Bean Protein, Tapioca Starch, Xanthan Gum

    Cheese Seasoning: Cheddar Cheese Powder (Pasteurized Milk, Cheese Culture, Salt, Enzymes), Sodium Phosphate, Buttermilk Solids, Natural Flavors, Salt, Contains 2% or less of: Xanthan Gum, Yeast Extract, Annatto Extract (For Color), Paprika Extract (For Color)

  • Contains milk and lupini, a legume belonging to the same plant family as peanuts.

    1. Bring 6 cups of salted water to a rolling boil. Add the pasta and stir. Some foaming is normal.
    2. Boil for 5-6 minutes, depending on your desired firmness, while stirring occasionally.
    3. Strain the boiled pasta, rinse with water, and return it to the warm pot.
    4. Add 1/3 to 1/2 cup light cream and the cheese seasoning. Stir to combine and enjoy!

    Optional: Add 2 tbsp butter for a richer flavor.


    Kaizen cooks a lot faster than regular mac and cheese, in anywhere from 4-6 minutes. Please reference the packaging instructions, make sure you boil in generously salted water, and do not overcook! It is important you use regular dairy (half and half, light cream, or heavy cream work best). Do not use a plant-based milk.

    Taste buds and preferences can vary by person, and cook times can be affected by several factors, including temperature, your stove, and even your altitude. We invite you to experiment with cook times to see what you prefer best!

    Pasta,and Mac and cheese

    I loved these ! I wasn’t sure I was going to like it but they are a great option if you want to eat healthier or want to lose weight. Texture, flavor and the time for cooking , are all a 5 star for me. My husband also liked it and said he could eat it again, and he is not easy when it comes to food.

    Quality Product

    We felt the sauce was a little thin and the macaroni slightly tough. Both are easily rectifiable by changing preparation. It tastes good, calories and macros are on point, and it was very satisfying. Overall a good substitute for the blue box version. Pricing is a bit too high but the product is good.

    Great Taste, Filling, Weird Texture

    The texture was weird and chalky.

    I was able to creat a delicious meal by adding a lot of fresh minced vegetables and nutritional yeast to modify the texture and enhance the flavor.

    I won't be buying this mac,and cheese again.
