- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cook macaroni per package instructions. Drain and rinse with cool water. Set aside.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onions, sauteing over medium low heat until fragrant and golden, about 15 minutes. Add in garlic and saute for additional 5 minutes.

Transfer carrots and cauliflower to the blender. Add the onions, garlic, milk, salt, mustard, 1/2 cup cheddar, and reserved broth and puree until smooth and creamy. Add additional salt and pepper to taste.
