INGREDIENTS
1.5 cups Cauliflower Florets (150g)
0.5 cup Sharp Cheddar Cheese, shredded (56g)
0.75 cup Low-Fat Milk (180g)
0.25 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt (60g)
0.25 tsp Salt
0.25 tsp Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F if you prefer a baked finish or prepare a stovetop pan for a quicker version.
Steam the cauliflower florets until tender, about 8-10 minutes, then transfer them to a blender.
Add the low-fat milk, nonfat Greek yogurt, salt, and black pepper to the blender. Purée until you achieve a smooth, creamy consistency.
Pour the cauliflower sauce into a saucepan over low heat and stir in the shredded sharp cheddar cheese until fully melted and combined.
Taste and adjust seasonings if necessary. For a baked topping, transfer the mixture to a baking dish, top with a sprinkle of extra cheddar, and bake for 10 minutes until bubbly and lightly golden.
Serve warm and enjoy this protein-packed, comforting dish as a healthy twist on mac 'n cheese.
