High-Protein Baked Macaroni and Cheese
Tender chickpea pasta baked in a creamy, protein-packed Greek yogurt and sharp cheddar sauce, finished with a golden, crispy parmesan topping.
INGREDIENTS
3 oz chickpea pasta
0.5 cup non-fat Greek yogurt
1 oz sharp cheddar cheese
1 tbsp parmesan cheese
1 tbsp nutritional yeast
0.25 cup unsweetened almond milk
1 tsp dijon mustard
0.25 tsp garlic powder
0.25 tsp onion powder
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 tsp smoked paprika
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a small oven-safe baking dish.
Cook the chickpea pasta in boiling salted water for 2 minutes less than the package directions suggest, then drain.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, almond milk, Dijon mustard, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper until smooth.
Fold in the cooked pasta and half of the shredded sharp cheddar cheese until the noodles are thoroughly coated.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread it into an even layer.
Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese, parmesan cheese, and smoked paprika over the top.
Bake for 15-20 minutes until the cheese is melted and the edges are bubbling and golden brown.
