INGREDIENTS
1 cup Whole Wheat Macaroni
1/2 cup Low-Fat Cottage Cheese
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 Egg White
2 tbsp Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1/2 cup Spinach
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Cook the whole wheat macaroni according to package directions until al dente, then drain.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked macaroni, cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, egg white, and garlic powder. Stir gently until the mixture is evenly creamy.
Fold in the fresh spinach and season with salt and pepper.
Transfer the mixture to a lightly greased baking dish. Sprinkle the whole wheat breadcrumbs evenly over the top to create a crispy topping.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until the topping is golden and the bake is heated through.
Remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
