Vegan Buffalo Cauliflower Mac and Cheese

This Buffalo Cauliflower Mac and Cheese is the ultimate vegan comfort food. This creamy, spicy vegan pasta dish is made healthy by adding lots of cauliflower and spinach - plus it's dairy-free, gluten-free, and totally delicious! Best of all, it's made with just 11 ingredients and will be on the table in only 30 minutes.
Sometimes I feel like I have glitter running through my veins, but then I realize it's just hot sauce. I simply cannot get enough of the stuff. My buffalo obsession has been going on for years.
I've loved buffalo sauce ever since my roommate in college (who, fun fact, was actually from Buffalo) got me throwing hot sauce on everything. It's become a bit of an obsession of mine. No joke, I actually keep a bottle in my purse for emergencies.
I know it's a popular flavor among carnivores and vegans alike, which is I bring my Quinoa Buffalo Balls to parties and make my Vegan Buffalo Chicken Rice Skillet throughout football season. So how could I not have a vegan Buffalo Mac and Cheese in my repertoire? I'm happy to report I've fixed that omission.
