Protein-Packed Creamy Cauliflower Mac with Sharp Cheddar
A delicious twist on classic mac & cheese featuring tender cauliflower florets and a rich, sharp cheddar sauce enhanced with a boost of protein from lean chicken breast. This creamy dish is balanced with a touch of Greek yogurt and a hint of garlic, creating a comforting meal that's both satisfying and nutrient-rich.
INGREDIENTS
3 ounces Chicken Breast (cooked)
2 cups Cauliflower Florets
1/2 cup Sharp Cheddar Cheese, shredded
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1/4 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
1 Garlic clove, minced
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F if finishing under the broiler, or set a pot for stovetop cooking.
Steam the cauliflower florets until tender (about 8-10 minutes). Drain well.
In a small saucepan, gently heat the almond milk with minced garlic for a minute to infuse the flavor.
In a blender, combine the steamed cauliflower, heated almond milk, and Greek yogurt. Blend until smooth and creamy.
Season the sauce with salt and pepper. Return the blended sauce to the pan and warm over low heat. Stir in the shredded sharp cheddar cheese until melted and the sauce is smooth.
Fold in the cooked, diced chicken breast into the sauce, allowing the flavors to meld.
Optionally, transfer the mixture to an oven-safe dish and broil for 2-3 minutes to lightly brown the top before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your protein-packed, creamy cauliflower mac.
