High-Protein Baked Macaroni and Cheese
Tender chickpea pasta and lean chicken breast are baked in a creamy, velvety cheese sauce made with Greek yogurt and sharp cheddar for a comforting, high-protein meal.
INGREDIENTS
1.5 oz Chickpea elbow pasta
3 oz Cooked chicken breast
0.25 cup Non-fat Greek yogurt
0.75 oz Sharp cheddar cheese
0.25 cup Steamed cauliflower florets
1 tbsp Nutritional yeast
1 tsp Dijon mustard
0.25 tsp Garlic powder
0.25 tsp Onion powder
0.13 tsp Sea salt
0.13 tsp Black pepper
1 tbsp Almond flour
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Boil the chickpea pasta in salted water for 2 minutes less than the package directions suggest, then drain.
In a small blender or bowl, mash or puree the steamed cauliflower florets until smooth.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, cauliflower puree, half of the shredded cheddar, nutritional yeast, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
Fold the cooked pasta and diced chicken breast into the cheese mixture until everything is thoroughly coated.
Transfer the mixture to a small oven-safe baking dish and top with the remaining cheddar cheese and a sprinkle of almond flour.
Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and the almond flour topping is golden brown.
