Low Fat Mac n Cheese

A Lower fat, but equally creamy and indulgent, mac n' cheese for one.

Cheese sauce from "Appetite for Reduction"

Healtyh alternative to a favourite!

Super quick, super cheap, healthy twist on the ol' kraft dinner. Instead of putting in butter with the cheese powder, add cottage cheese, peas, egg white and pepper. When you've added the extra ingredients, put it on low heat to simmer for 5 minutes or until it reaches the desired consistency. Season as desired- tabasco or salt improves the taste.
NOTE: this recipe is best made with white macaroni & cheese (not yellow), but I couldn't find the nutritional info for unprepared white mac & cheese.

LOW FAT VERSION

I based this on Hungry Girl's EZ Mac N Cheese as well as The Yard House Mac N Cheese recipes and just switched it up based on what I had available and would find tasty!

I tried to come up with a way to revamp my traditional macaroni & cheese (which usually weighs about 30lbs and is super fatty)...so I came up with this and it actually tasted good.

Same great taste, less calories!

A recipe I found in a cookbook from Better Homes and Gardens, made a bit healthier by using Barilla Plus mulit-grain Elbow noodles and Borden Fat Free sharp cheese singles.

I saw a recipe that had shrimp in the mac n cheese and wanted to try it. The greek yogurt makes it sooo creamy!

Regular mac n cheese with yogurt instead of butter...

Organic Vegetable Pasta makes a hearty lowfat version of the macaroni and cheese comfort food.

Seriously this stuff is awesome. Not only is is low fat but it has low digestible carbs.

This is similar to another recipe on SparkPeople that neglected to include any measurements. Nutritional info is with cheddar cheese topping included.

Cheesy Side Dish

This mac and cheese is so low fat, it can hardly even be called mac n cheese. The quinoa pasta in place of flour also boosts protein and makes the meal healthier overall.
