A comforting twist on classic mac and cheese, this recipe uses cauliflower as a low-carb pasta substitute. Enhanced with sharp cheddar, creamy nonfat Greek yogurt, and eggs for an extra protein boost, it delivers a delicious balance of flavors and textures that makes it perfect for any meal of the day.
INGREDIENTS
1 cup Cauliflower (100g)
1 oz Sharp Cheddar Cheese (28g)
3/4 cup Nonfat Plain Greek Yogurt (170g)
1 Egg White (33g)
1 Whole Egg (50g)
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven broiler to medium-high.
Break the cauliflower into florets and steam until tender, about 6-8 minutes. Drain any excess moisture.
In a mixing bowl, lightly mash the steamed cauliflower with a fork to create a chunky, pasta-like texture.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg white and whole egg. Stir in the nonfat Greek yogurt until smooth.
Pour the egg and yogurt mixture over the mashed cauliflower. Add the sharp cheddar cheese and gently mix until evenly incorporated. Season with salt and pepper.
Transfer the mixture to an oven-safe dish, smoothing the top evenly.
Place the dish under the broiler for 3-5 minutes or until the cheese has melted and begun to bubble, watching carefully to prevent burning.
Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm.
