non-pasta vegan mac and "cheese" - oh yeah, it CAN be done!

I have been DYING for vegan Mac and "Cheese" but with my weight loss challenge going on at the office I knew that I really didn't need the calories.  But come on, Mac and Cheese is sooooo good!!  All of that creamy goodness who am I to say no?!  So, what is a vegan chick to do?  Come up with a non-pasta version!!  My thought was if I was to cut out the pasta I would replace it with zucchini and then bulk it up with some more veggies!!  Here is what I came up with:


Spicy Vegan Non-Pasta Mac & "Cheese" with Mushrooms and Roasted Brussels Sprouts


Ingredients
3 Zucchini, spiral cut, then cut into smaller pieces
2 Cups Mushrooms, sliced
1-2 T Vegetable Broth
2 Pounds Brussels Sprouts, sliced in half ends trimmed and yellow leaves removed
1 Cup Bread Crumbs
