Creamy Baked Cauliflower Mac and Cheese
A comforting twist on the classic mac and cheese, this dish features a blend of whole grain macaroni and tender cauliflower, enveloped in a light and creamy reduced-fat cheese sauce powered by non-fat Greek yogurt and a touch of almond milk. With a crunchy hint from a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of spices, it's a balanced meal that's both nourishing and satisfying.
INGREDIENTS
2 oz Whole Grain Macaroni
1/2 cup Reduced-Fat Cheddar Cheese (shredded)
1/2 cup Non-Fat Greek Yogurt
2 cups chopped Cauliflower
1/4 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
1 tsp Olive Oil
Spices (Garlic Powder, Salt, Pepper)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Cook the whole grain macaroni according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
Steam or boil the chopped cauliflower until tender, about 5-7 minutes, then lightly mash or blend for a creamier texture.
In a mixing bowl, combine the reduced-fat shredded cheddar, non-fat Greek yogurt, unsweetened almond milk, and spices. Stir until smooth to form a light cheese sauce.
Mix in the cooked macaroni and the steamed cauliflower, ensuring everything is evenly coated with the sauce.
Transfer the mixture into a baking dish, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle a bit more garlic powder, salt, and pepper on top if desired.
Bake for 15-20 minutes until the top is slightly golden and the dish is heated through.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving.
