Creamy Golden Baked Macaroni and Cheese
Chickpea pasta and shredded chicken baked in a velvety pumpkin-cheese sauce, finished with a crispy, golden nutritional yeast crust.
INGREDIENTS
2 oz chickpea pasta
3 oz cooked chicken breast
0.25 cup pumpkin puree
0.25 cup non-fat Greek yogurt
0.5 oz sharp cheddar cheese
1 tbsp nutritional yeast
2 tbsp unsweetened almond milk
0.25 tsp garlic powder
0.25 tsp onion powder
0.13 tsp sea salt
0.13 tsp black pepper
0.13 tsp smoked paprika
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F and lightly grease a small oven-safe ramekin or baking dish.
Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the chickpea pasta for 2 minutes less than the package instructions suggest, then drain.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, Greek yogurt, almond milk, garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper until smooth.
Stir in half of the shredded cheddar cheese and the cooked shredded chicken breast into the pumpkin mixture.
Add the par-cooked pasta to the bowl and toss until every noodle is thoroughly coated in the golden sauce.
Transfer the mixture to your prepared baking dish and spread it into an even layer.
Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese, nutritional yeast, and smoked paprika evenly over the top.
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes until the cheese is melted and the edges are bubbling and slightly crisp.
