High-Protein Baked Macaroni and Cheese
Tender chickpea pasta and shredded chicken baked in a creamy, velvet-smooth Greek yogurt cheese sauce with vibrant broccoli florets.
INGREDIENTS
1.5 oz Dry chickpea pasta
2.5 oz Cooked shredded chicken breast
1 cup Broccoli florets
0.5 cup Nonfat plain Greek yogurt
0.75 oz Sharp cheddar cheese
1 tbsp Parmesan cheese
0.25 tsp Garlic powder
0.25 tsp Onion powder
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.13 tsp Black pepper
0.13 tsp Smoked paprika
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Boil the dry chickpea pasta in salted water for 2 minutes less than the package instructions to keep it firm.
Steam the broccoli florets until they are bright green and slightly tender, then set aside.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper until smooth.
Stir in the cooked shredded chicken breast, steamed broccoli, and half of the sharp cheddar cheese into the yogurt mixture.
Drain the pasta and fold it into the yogurt and chicken mixture until every noodle is evenly coated.
Transfer the mixture to a small baking dish and top with the remaining sharp cheddar cheese and parmesan cheese.
Bake for 15 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly, then finish with a dusting of smoked paprika before serving.
