INGREDIENTS
1.5 cups Cauliflower Florets (150g)
2 oz Sharp Cheddar Cheese, shredded (56g)
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt (60g)
1/2 cup Low-fat Cottage Cheese (113g)
1/2 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk (120g)
1 tsp Olive Oil (5g)
1 clove Garlic, minced
1/4 medium Onion, chopped
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Toss the cauliflower florets with a drizzle of olive oil, minced garlic, and chopped onion, and roast on a baking sheet for about 20 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
While the cauliflower roasts, in a small saucepan over low-medium heat, combine the unsweetened almond milk, Greek yogurt, low-fat cottage cheese, and shredded sharp cheddar. Stir continuously until the cheeses melt into a smooth, creamy sauce.
Once the cauliflower is roasted, transfer it to a medium bowl and pour the warm cheese sauce over it, gently folding to coat the florets evenly.
Season with salt and pepper to taste, and serve hot for a comforting and protein-packed twist on traditional mac and cheese.
