Golden Macaroni and Cheese Bites
Crispy fried macaroni spheres made with chickpea pasta and a sharp cheddar-yogurt sauce, offering a satisfyingly crunchy exterior and gooey center.
INGREDIENTS
2 oz chickpea elbow pasta
0.5 cup non-fat plain Greek yogurt
0.25 cup nutritional yeast
0.5 oz sharp cheddar cheese
1 large egg white
0.25 cup panko breadcrumbs
2 tsp avocado oil
0.25 tsp garlic powder
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Boil the chickpea pasta in salted water until al dente then drain thoroughly.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, nutritional yeast, shredded cheddar, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Fold the cooked pasta into the cheese mixture and refrigerate for at least one hour until the mixture is firm.
Scoop the chilled mixture and roll into small uniform balls using your hands.
Dip each ball into the whisked egg white and then coat evenly with the panko breadcrumbs.
Heat the avocado oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and fry the balls until they are golden and crispy on all sides.
