High-Protein Baked Macaroni and Cheese
Baked chickpea pasta folded into a velvety blended cottage cheese and sharp cheddar sauce, topped with a golden almond flour crust.
INGREDIENTS
2 oz Chickpea pasta
0.5 cup Low-fat cottage cheese
0.75 oz Sharp cheddar cheese
2 oz Cooked chicken breast
1 cup Broccoli florets
1 tbsp Nutritional yeast
0.25 tsp Garlic powder
0.25 tsp Onion powder
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 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 water for 2 minutes less than the package instructions suggest, then drain.
In a high-speed blender, combine the cottage cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper until completely smooth and creamy.
Finely chop the cooked chicken breast and the broccoli florets into bite-sized pieces.
In a mixing bowl, toss the undercooked pasta with the blended cottage cheese sauce, chicken, broccoli, nutritional yeast, and half of the shredded cheddar cheese.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese and the almond flour over the top to create a crust.
Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until the cheese is melted and the edges are bubbling and golden brown.
