INGREDIENTS
300 grams Cauliflower, raw
1/2 cup Chickpeas, canned, drained
170 grams Non-fat Greek Yogurt
1/4 cup Shredded Reduced Fat Cheddar Cheese
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder
1/2 teaspoon Onion Powder
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Break the cauliflower into florets and pulse in a food processor until it resembles rice or small pasta pieces. Set aside.
In a bowl, combine the chickpeas with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Lightly mash them with a fork leaving some texture for the crumb topping.
Toss the cauliflower 'mac' with Greek yogurt and shredded cheddar cheese in a mixing bowl until evenly coated. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Spread the cauliflower mixture into a baking dish. Evenly distribute the mashed chickpea crumbs over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes until the dish is heated through and the chickpea topping is slightly crispy.
Remove from oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
