Classic Baked Macaroni and Cheese
Chickpea pasta folded into a velvety Greek yogurt and sharp cheddar sauce, then baked until the almond flour topping is perfectly golden.
INGREDIENTS
2.5 oz chickpea elbow pasta
1.5 oz sharp cheddar cheese
0.5 cup non-fat Greek yogurt
0.25 cup 1% milk
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 tsp garlic powder
0.25 tsp smoked paprika
1 tbsp nutritional yeast
0.5 tbsp almond flour
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F and lightly grease a small oven-safe baking dish.
Cook the chickpea pasta in boiling salted water for 2 minutes less than the package instructions to ensure it remains al dente after baking.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, milk, nutritional yeast, sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika until smooth.
Stir 1 ounce of the shredded sharp cheddar cheese into the yogurt mixture.
Drain the pasta and immediately fold it into the cheese sauce until every noodle is thoroughly and evenly coated.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish and top with the remaining 0.5 ounce of cheddar cheese and the almond flour.
Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until the sauce is bubbling and the topping has reached a beautiful golden brown color.
