Enjoy a wholesome twist on the classic comfort dish with whole wheat macaroni smothered in a creamy, light cheese sauce accented by nonfat Greek yogurt and egg whites. Roasted broccoli adds a nutty crunch and vibrant color, making this meal both nutritious and satisfying.
INGREDIENTS
2 oz Whole Wheat Macaroni
1/2 cup shredded Light Cheddar Cheese
1/2 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1/2 cup Skim Milk
2 large Egg Whites
1 cup Broccoli
1 tsp Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a baking dish.
Cook the whole wheat macaroni in boiling water until just al dente, about 7-8 minutes. Drain and set aside.
While the pasta cooks, toss the broccoli florets with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them out on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for about 15 minutes until they are tender and slightly crispy.
In a bowl, combine the shredded light cheddar cheese, nonfat Greek yogurt, skim milk, and egg whites. Mix until smooth.
Fold the cooked macaroni and roasted broccoli into the cheese mixture until well combined.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until the casserole is set and lightly golden on top.
Remove from the oven and let sit for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy warm as a hearty breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
