INGREDIENTS
2 cups Cauliflower
1 cup Whole Wheat Elbow Macaroni (cooked)
1.5 ounces Sharp Cheddar Cheese
0.5 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
0.25 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
0.25 teaspoon Dijon Mustard Powder
0.25 teaspoon Salt & Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat a medium saucepan of water to a simmer and cook the whole wheat elbow macaroni until al dente, then drain and set aside.
Meanwhile, steam the cauliflower florets until they are tender but still hold a slight bite.
In a small bowl, combine the nonfat Greek yogurt, unsweetened almond milk, Dijon mustard powder, salt, and pepper. Stir until the mixture forms a smooth, creamy sauce.
In a larger mixing bowl, gently toss the cooked macaroni and steamed cauliflower with the sauce, ensuring even coating.
Stir in the grated sharp cheddar cheese while the mixture is still warm so that it melts slightly and adds a rich, tangy flavor.
Serve warm and enjoy your creamy, nutritious twist on classic mac and cheese.
