INGREDIENTS
1 cup Cauliflower (107g)
100g Shredded Chicken Breast
0.5 cup Shredded Low-Fat Cheddar Cheese (57g)
0.25 cup Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt (62g)
0.25 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk (60g)
0.25 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs (30g)
0.5 teaspoon Paprika
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Steam or boil the cauliflower florets until they are very tender, about 8-10 minutes.
In a blender, combine the steamed cauliflower, Greek yogurt, almond milk, and half of the shredded cheddar cheese. Blend until smooth and creamy.
Transfer the pureed mixture into a saucepan over medium heat and season with salt, pepper, and paprika. Heat gently, stirring frequently.
Stir in the shredded chicken breast into the warm sauce, allowing it to evenly incorporate.
Pour the creamy mixture into an oven-proof dish. Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese followed by the whole wheat breadcrumbs evenly on top.
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes until the topping is golden and crispy.
Remove from the oven, let it cool for a couple of minutes, then serve warm.
