Yes it will if you use Soy Milk to help it melt better. The only reason eggs are used is to give the dish firmness and help it stay together. I like my Mac-n-Cheez with a creamy texture so I never used a lot of eggs anyway.. I suggest a product called egg-like, which is potato starch or corn starch. You can also use vegan sour cream and vegan cream cheese to give the dish a smooth and creamy texture as well. It probably ain't mama's recipe but you will eliminate all of the cholesterol, 80-90% of the fat from the dish and add more muscle building protein to the dish. Just a way to replace the foods that we love with healthier versions of themselves.
Bon Appetite my sista......
