Protein-Packed Baked Macaroni and Cheese
Chickpea pasta and cauliflower florets are baked in a creamy, sharp cheddar yogurt sauce under a golden, toasted breadcrumb crust.
INGREDIENTS
2.5 oz Chickpea elbow pasta
1 cup Cauliflower florets
0.75 cup Non-fat Greek yogurt
0.5 oz Sharp cheddar cheese
1 tbsp Parmesan cheese
2 tbsp Whole wheat breadcrumbs
0.25 tsp Garlic powder
0.25 tsp Onion powder
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.25 tsp Olive oil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cook the chickpea pasta in boiling water for 2 minutes less than the package directions, adding the cauliflower florets to the same pot for the last 3 minutes of boiling.
Drain the pasta and cauliflower thoroughly, then return them to the warm pot.
Stir in the Greek yogurt, shredded sharp cheddar cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper until the cheese is melted and the sauce is creamy.
Transfer the mixture into a small oven-safe baking dish.
In a small bowl, combine the whole wheat breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, and olive oil, stirring until the crumbs are evenly coated.
Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture over the top of the pasta.
Bake for 15-20 minutes until the cheese sauce is bubbling and the breadcrumb topping is golden brown.
