INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Cauliflower Florets
1 oz Sharp Cheddar Cheese
1/4 cup Non-Fat Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F if roasting the chicken breast, or prepare your stovetop for quick sautéing.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper. Roast in the oven or cook on a skillet until thoroughly cooked, then dice into bite-sized pieces.
While the chicken cooks, steam the cauliflower florets until tender, about 5-7 minutes, then drain well.
In a small saucepan, combine the sharp cheddar cheese with a splash of water or a little milk alternative over low heat, stirring until melted and smooth.
Mix in the non-fat Greek yogurt and a teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil into the cheese sauce for creaminess.
Combine the steamed cauliflower and diced chicken in a bowl, then pour the cheese sauce over the mixture. Stir gently to coat evenly.
Serve immediately while warm, and enjoy your protein-packed, low-carb twist on classic mac and cheese.
