Protein-Packed Cauliflower Mac with Sharp Cheddar
Enjoy a creamy, satisfying twist on traditional mac and cheese using tender cauliflower florets, a rich sharp cheddar cheese sauce enhanced with tangy Greek yogurt, and lean chicken breast for an extra protein boost. This dish delivers comfort and nutrition in a lighter, protein-packed version of a classic.
INGREDIENTS
2 cups Cauliflower Florets (200g)
1/2 cup Sharp Cheddar Cheese, shredded (56g)
1/2 cup Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt (125g)
3 ounces Chicken Breast, cooked and diced (85g)
1/4 teaspoon Salt
1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat a steamer or a pot with a steamer basket over boiling water.
Wash and cut the cauliflower into florets. Steam for 8-10 minutes until tender but still retaining some bite.
While the cauliflower steams, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the diced cooked chicken breast to warm through.
In a mixing bowl, combine the steamed cauliflower with shredded sharp cheddar and Greek yogurt. Sprinkle in salt and black pepper.
Gently stir the mixture, allowing the warmth of the cauliflower to help melt the cheddar and blend the flavors.
Fold in the warmed chicken and adjust seasoning to taste.
Serve immediately for a creamy, protein-packed twist on classic mac and cheese.
