Cauliflower "Mac and Cheese"
Cauliflower replaces macaroni noodles and the creamy cheese sauce is lightened up as well, for this low carb and lighter macaroni and cheese-like dish.
Ingredients
- 1 head cauliflower, cut into bite-sized florets
- 2 cups shredded low fat cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt
- 1 tsp mustard powder
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 -1 tbsp hot sauce
- 4-6 tbsp nonfat milk
Instructions
- Bring a large pot to boil over the stove and add in florets. Cook until just tender. Drain and pat dry with paper towels.
- In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine cheese, yogurt, mustard, onion and garlic powders, and hot sauce. Stir until sauce becomes uniform and smooth. The sauce will be quite thick. To thin it out, add milk, 1 tbsp at a time, stirring after each addition until sauce is smooth again.
- Add half of the sauce to your cauliflower and stir until cauliflower is coated. Pour remaining sauce on top over cauliflower.
