Protein-Packed Cauliflower Mac with Sharp Cheddar
Enjoy a twist on a classic comfort dish with cauliflower replacing traditional pasta, enveloped in a velvety, protein-boosting cheesy sauce. This dish melds the nutty sharpness of aged cheddar with the creaminess of nonfat Greek yogurt and a touch of egg white for extra protein, making it a satisfying meal for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
INGREDIENTS
400g Cauliflower Florets
42g Sharp Cheddar Cheese (shredded)
1/2 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 large Egg White
1 tsp Dry Mustard Powder
1 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F if you prefer a roasted texture for the cauliflower. Alternatively, you can steam the cauliflower on the stovetop.
Cut the cauliflower into bite-sized florets. Toss with a little salt and pepper, and roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes until tender and lightly browned, or steam until just tender.
In a small bowl, whisk together the nonfat Greek yogurt, egg white, dry mustard powder, and garlic powder until smooth.
While the cauliflower is finishing up cooking, transfer it to a medium saucepan over low heat. Stir in the shredded sharp cheddar cheese and the yogurt mixture.
Gently heat the mixture, stirring continuously, until the cheese melts and the sauce becomes creamy, being careful not to let the mixture boil.
Taste and adjust seasoning with extra salt and pepper if needed.
Serve immediately, enjoying a protein-packed, comforting bowl of cauliflower mac.
