INGREDIENTS
1 cup chopped Cauliflower (107g)
2 ounces Whole Wheat Macaroni (56g)
1/2 cup shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese (56g)
1/2 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt (124g)
1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Begin by bringing a pot of water to a boil and add the whole wheat macaroni. Cook according to package directions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
While the pasta cooks, steam the cauliflower florets until they are fork-tender, about 5-7 minutes.
In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the steamed cauliflower, shredded sharp cheddar, and nonfat Greek yogurt. Stir gently until the cheese begins to melt, creating a creamy, smooth sauce. Add garlic powder, salt, and black pepper, mixing well to evenly distribute the seasonings.
Add the drained macaroni to the saucepan and toss until the pasta is thoroughly coated with the creamy sauce.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Serve warm and enjoy the comforting, creamy blend of flavors.
