Meanwhile, for cheese sauce, in a medium saucepan cook onion in margarine or butter until tender but not brown. Stir in flour and pepper. Add soymilk all at once. Cook and stir until slightly thickened and bubbly. Add American cheese, stirring until melted. Stir in cooked macaroni. Transfer mixture to 1-quart casserole dish.
