Protein-Packed Cauliflower Mac with Sharp Cheddar
Enjoy a comforting twist on classic mac and cheese, where tender cauliflower replaces traditional pasta, and lean chicken breast boosts the protein. A rich, creamy blend of sharp cheddar and nonfat Greek yogurt delivers a satisfying, nutrient-packed dish perfect for any meal.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
2 cups Cauliflower florets
¼ cup shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese
1/3 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1/4 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
1 tsp Olive Oil
½ tsp Black Pepper
Pinch of Salt
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Season the chicken breast with a pinch of salt and black pepper. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat and cook the chicken until golden and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side. Once cooked, shred or dice the chicken and set aside.
Steam the cauliflower florets until tender, about 6-8 minutes. Alternatively, you can microwave them in a covered dish with a splash of water for 4-5 minutes.
In a medium bowl, combine the steamed cauliflower with nonfat Greek yogurt, unsweetened almond milk, and shredded sharp cheddar. Mix well until you achieve a creamy consistency.
Fold in the cooked chicken and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Transfer the mixture to an ovenproof dish and bake for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the cheese to become bubbly.
Remove from the oven, stir gently, and serve warm. Enjoy your protein-packed, comforting bowl of cauliflower mac!
