High Protein Chicken Mac and Cheese Bake with Broccoli
Enjoy a comforting and protein-packed twist on traditional mac and cheese. Tender chicken breast, whole wheat pasta, and crisp broccoli are baked with a creamy low‐fat cheddar and Greek yogurt sauce for a satisfying, balanced meal that nourishes without weighing you down.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast (raw)
1/2 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1/4 cup shredded Low-Fat Cheddar Cheese
1/2 cup chopped Broccoli
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Olive Oil
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to package directions until al dente, then drain.
In a non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper, and cook it until fully done, about 5-7 minutes per side. Once cooked, dice or shred the chicken.
Steam or blanch the broccoli until just tender, about 3-4 minutes, then set aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked pasta, chicken, broccoli, shredded low-fat cheddar, and Greek yogurt. Season with additional salt and pepper as needed for balanced flavor.
Transfer the mixture into a baking dish. Sprinkle a little extra cheese on top if desired.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until the dish is heated through and the cheese is slightly melted.
Serve warm and enjoy your high protein, comforting mac and cheese bake.
