To make the mac and cheese, cook the macaroni according to the packet instructions. Drain and place in a bowl.
Heat the coconut milk in a small pan and add the Violife Just Like Cheddar Shreds and a bit of olive oil, stirring until it becomes a rich, thick sauce. Season with salt and pepper and stir in the pasta. Add chives and set aside.
To make the guacamole, add all ingredients in a bowl and mash well with a fork.
To make the burgers, add all the ingredients into a blender and pulse until combined. Divide into 4 equal parts and shape into burger patties. Heat a griddle pan on high heat, drizzle with some olive oil and grill patties for 3 mintutes on each side. Top each pattie with a Violife Just Like Mature Cheddar Slice and remove from heat.
Cut burger buns in half and spread the base with mayo. Top with lettuce, Violife burger pattie, tomato, a dollop of mac and cheese and pickled onions.
Spread the top bun with mustard and cover your burger. Enjoy!
