Crispy Golden Mac and Cheese Bites
Oven-baked chickpea pasta bites mixed with lean turkey and broccoli, featuring a creamy yogurt-cheese sauce and a satisfyingly crunchy golden panko crust.
INGREDIENTS
2 oz Chickpea pasta shells
3 oz Ground turkey
0.25 cup Non-fat Greek yogurt
2 tbsp Shredded cheddar cheese
1 large Egg
0.5 cup Broccoli florets
2 tbsp Whole wheat panko breadcrumbs
0.25 tsp Garlic powder
0.25 tsp Onion powder
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F and lightly grease a standard muffin tin with avocado oil spray.
Cook the chickpea pasta shells in boiling salted water until al dente, then drain and set aside.
In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, brown the ground turkey until fully cooked and crumbled.
Finely chop the broccoli florets and steam them for 2 minutes until bright green and slightly tender.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the egg, Greek yogurt, shredded cheddar, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
Fold the cooked pasta, browned turkey, and steamed broccoli into the yogurt mixture until everything is evenly coated.
Divide the mixture into the prepared muffin tin and sprinkle the top of each bite with whole wheat panko.
Bake for 15 to 18 minutes until the bites are firm and the panko topping is a beautiful golden brown.
