INGREDIENTS
2 oz Whole Wheat Macaroni (dry)
½ cup Low-Fat Cottage Cheese
3 large Egg Whites
1 tbsp Grated Low-Fat Parmesan Cheese
¼ cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
½ tsp Honey
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
½ tsp Ground Cinnamon
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Cook the whole wheat macaroni according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a large bowl, combine the low-fat cottage cheese, egg whites, unsweetened almond milk, honey, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon. Whisk until smooth.
Fold in the cooked macaroni gently until well incorporated.
Pour the mixture into a lightly greased small baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Sprinkle the grated low-fat parmesan cheese evenly over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the top is lightly golden and the custard is set.
Allow the bake to cool slightly before serving as a warm, dessert-style dish that combines comforting creaminess with a hint of sweet spice.
