INGREDIENTS
1 cup Whole Wheat Macaroni (cooked)
3 ounces Chicken Breast (cooked, diced)
1/4 cup shredded Part-Skim Cheddar Cheese
1/2 cup Low-Fat Milk
1 tablespoon Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1/2 cup chopped steamed Broccoli
1/2 teaspoon Black Pepper
1/2 teaspoon Salt
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Cook whole wheat macaroni according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
In a bowl, combine low-fat milk, Greek yogurt, salt, and black pepper to create a light creamy sauce.
Mix the cooked macaroni with the diced, cooked chicken breast and chopped broccoli. Stir in the creamy sauce until evenly coated.
Transfer the mixture into a baking dish and top evenly with shredded part-skim cheddar cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and slightly golden.
Allow to cool slightly before serving to let the flavors meld together.
