Baked Macaroni and Cheese with Toasted Breadcrumbs
Chickpea pasta and shredded chicken baked in a creamy, protein-rich Greek yogurt and cheddar sauce, finished with a golden, crispy breadcrumb topping.
INGREDIENTS
2 oz Chickpea pasta
0.5 cup Non-fat Greek yogurt
1 oz Sharp cheddar cheese
2 tbsp Nutritional yeast
1 oz Cooked chicken breast
1 cup Broccoli florets
0.25 cup Unsweetened almond milk
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
0.5 tsp Paprika
PREPARATION
Preheat oven to 375°F and lightly grease a small oven-safe baking dish.
Cook the chickpea pasta in boiling water for 2 minutes less than the package directions to keep it firm, then drain.
Steam the broccoli florets until tender-crisp, then finely chop into bite-sized pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, almond milk, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper.
Stir half of the shredded cheddar cheese into the yogurt mixture until well combined.
Fold the cooked pasta, shredded chicken breast, and chopped broccoli into the sauce until everything is evenly coated.
Transfer the mixture into the baking dish and top with the remaining cheddar cheese and whole wheat breadcrumbs.
Dust the top with paprika and bake for 15-20 minutes until the sauce is bubbling and the breadcrumbs have reached a perfect golden crunch.
