INGREDIENTS
2 ounces Whole Wheat Macaroni
3/4 cup Reduced Fat Cheddar Cheese, shredded
1/2 cup Low-Fat Milk
1/2 cup Cauliflower Puree
2 Egg Whites
PREPARATION
Cook the whole wheat macaroni according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a saucepan, combine the low-fat milk and cauliflower puree over medium heat. Stir frequently until the mixture begins to warm.
Add the shredded reduced fat cheddar cheese to the saucepan. Stir until the cheese melts, forming a silky sauce.
Whisk in the egg whites into the sauce off the heat to incorporate extra protein and help thicken the sauce without scrambling.
Combine the cooked macaroni with the cheese and vegetable sauce, stirring gently until evenly coated.
Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve warm and enjoy your balanced, protein-rich mac and cheese with hidden veggies.
