Protein Mac and Cheese
Creamy mac and cheese packed with protein
Ingredients
- 250 g Macaroni Pasta
- 40 g Plant-Based Butter
- 40 g Unflavoured Protein Powder
- 500 ml Oat Milk
- 3 tsp English Mustard
- 1 tbsp Mixed Herbs
- 100 g Yeast Flakes
- 10 g Garlic Granules
Instructions
- Heat up a pan of water and cook the macaroni according to the package instructions
- In a separate pan, gently melt the butter
- Once the butter has melted, take the pan off the heat
- Stir in the protein powder until it has all been incorporated into the butter
- Slowly add in the milk, about 50ml at a time and return the pan to the heat
- Stir the mixture until it has dissolved into the milk. I find a whisk can help maintain a smooth sauce
- Add the rest of the milk
- Stirring continuously add the herbs, mustard and garlic powder
- Add in the yeast flakes bit by bit. Make sure to stir continuously to keep the sauce smooth
- Once all of the yeast flakes have been added the sauce should have thickened up. If you would like a thicker sauce, add more yeast flakes. If the sauce is looking too thick for you, stop adding the yeast flakes.
- Add in the cooked macaroni and stir
- Serve with your choice of toppings!
