Cheesy Chicken Macaroni Bake
Tender chicken and whole grain macaroni baked in a creamy, protein-packed cheese sauce with hidden cauliflower for a satisfying, velvety finish.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken breast
1.5 oz Whole wheat elbow macaroni
1 cup Cauliflower florets
0.75 oz Sharp cheddar cheese
0.25 cup Non-fat Greek yogurt
1 tbsp Nutritional yeast
0.25 tsp Garlic powder
0.25 tsp Onion powder
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.25 tsp Ground mustard
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a small oven-safe baking dish.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat macaroni according to package instructions, adding the cauliflower florets for the final 5 minutes of boiling.
While the pasta cooks, dice the chicken breast into small, bite-sized pieces and sauté in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until golden and cooked through.
Drain the pasta and cauliflower thoroughly, then return them to the warm pot.
Stir in the cooked chicken, Greek yogurt, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, black pepper, and ground mustard until the mixture is well coated and creamy.
Transfer the macaroni mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
Sprinkle the shredded sharp cheddar cheese over the top and bake for 12-15 minutes until the cheese is melted and slightly bubbly.
