2 oz Chickpea pasta
0.5 cup Low-fat cottage cheese
0.25 cup Nonfat Greek yogurt
0.5 oz Sharp cheddar cheese
2 oz Cooked chicken breast
1 tbsp Whole wheat panko breadcrumbs
0.5 tsp Olive oil
1 tsp Nutritional yeast
0.25 tsp Garlic powder
0.25 tsp Onion powder
0.13 tsp Sea salt

PREPARATION
Preheat oven to 375°F.
Boil chickpea pasta in salted water until slightly firm; drain and set aside.
Blend cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper in a high-speed blender until completely smooth.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked pasta, blended sauce, diced cooked chicken breast, and half of the sharp cheddar cheese.
Transfer the mixture to a small baking dish and top with the remaining sharp cheddar cheese.
In a small ramekin, mix the whole wheat panko breadcrumbs, olive oil, and nutritional yeast until combined.
Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture over the pasta and bake for 15 minutes until the topping is golden and the sauce is bubbling.
