Baked Macaroni and Cheese with Crispy Topping
High-protein chickpea pasta and lean ground turkey baked in a creamy, velvety cheese sauce with a golden, crispy panko crust.
INGREDIENTS
2 oz Chickpea pasta
4 oz Lean ground turkey
0.25 cup Plain non-fat Greek yogurt
0.5 oz Sharp cheddar cheese
1 tbsp Nutritional yeast
0.25 cup Low-sodium chicken broth
1 tbsp Panko breadcrumbs
0.25 tsp Garlic powder
0.25 tsp Onion powder
0.25 tsp Smoked paprika
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a small oven-safe ramekin or baking dish.
Cook the chickpea pasta in boiling water for 2 minutes less than the package directions suggest, then drain and set aside.
In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, cook the ground turkey until fully browned and crumbled, seasoning with a pinch of the salt and pepper.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, shredded cheddar, nutritional yeast, chicken broth, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika until a smooth sauce forms.
Fold the cooked pasta and browned turkey into the cheese sauce until every piece is thoroughly coated.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and sprinkle the panko breadcrumbs evenly across the top.
Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and the topping has reached a beautiful golden brown color.
