Creamy Golden Baked Macaroni and Cheese
Baked chickpea pasta and chicken are folded into a velvety cauliflower-cheese sauce until the golden top is perfectly bubbly.
INGREDIENTS
2 oz chickpea pasta
3 oz cooked chicken breast
0.5 cup cauliflower florets
0.25 cup non-fat Greek yogurt
0.5 oz sharp cheddar cheese
1 tbsp nutritional yeast
0.25 tsp garlic powder
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 tsp smoked paprika
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Boil the chickpea pasta in a pot of salted water until al dente, then drain and set aside.
Steam the cauliflower florets until very tender, approximately 8 minutes.
In a high-speed blender, combine the steamed cauliflower, Greek yogurt, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper.
Blend on high until the sauce is completely smooth and creamy.
In a small oven-safe baking dish, stir together the cooked pasta, shredded chicken breast, and the cauliflower sauce until well combined.
Top the mixture evenly with the shredded sharp cheddar cheese and a dusting of smoked paprika.
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until the cheese is melted and the sauce is bubbling around the edges.
Let the dish cool for 2 minutes before serving to allow the sauce to set.
