Protein-Packed Cauliflower Mac with Sharp Cheddar
A nutritious twist on classic mac & cheese using tender cauliflower florets as a base, mixed with a creamy, sharp cheddar sauce enriched with nonfat Greek yogurt and a boost of whey protein. This dish delivers a hearty dose of protein and vibrant flavors while keeping the calorie count in check.
INGREDIENTS
350 grams Cauliflower Florets
28 grams Sharp Cheddar Cheese
120 grams Nonfat Greek Yogurt
30 grams Whey Protein Isolate (Unflavored)
Pinch of Mixed Seasonings (Salt, Pepper, Garlic Powder)
PREPARATION
Preheat a steamer or a pot with a steaming basket over medium heat.
Cut the cauliflower into florets, ensuring they are uniform for even steaming.
Steam the cauliflower florets for about 7-10 minutes, or until they are fork-tender.
In a blender, combine the steamed cauliflower, sharp cheddar cheese, nonfat Greek yogurt, and whey protein isolate. Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy, adding a pinch of mixed seasonings to taste.
Transfer the blended mixture to a saucepan and gently warm over low heat, stirring occasionally until heated through. Avoid boiling to maintain creaminess and protein integrity.
Taste and adjust seasonings if necessary, then serve immediately as a comforting, protein-packed alternative to traditional mac and cheese.
