PREPARATION

1
Preheat your oven to 375°F and lightly grease a small oven-safe ramekin or baking dish.
2
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the chickpea pasta for 2 minutes less than the package instructions suggest, then drain and set aside.
3
In a high-speed blender, combine the cottage cheese, skim milk, garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, black pepper, and Dijon mustard, processing until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy.
4
In a mixing bowl, toss the cooked pasta and diced chicken breast with the blended cottage cheese sauce and half of the shredded cheddar cheese.
5
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
6
Top with the remaining shredded cheddar cheese and a sprinkle of nutritional yeast for a savory, golden crust.
7
Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until the sauce is bubbling and the cheese on top has melted and slightly browned.
