Ingredients
One package Tinkyada Brown Rice macaroniCabot Extra sharp cheddar cheese (1/2 block or 4 oz.)Cabot Colby Jack Cheese (1/2 block or 4 oz.)Nonfat Milk (1.5 cups)Smart Balance Light (2 tbsp)Rice flour/or other gluten free flour mix (2 tbsp = about 16 g)Onions, finely chopped (1 tbsp)Garlic, minced (2 tbsp)Paprika (0.5 tsp)Salt (0.5 tsp)(Optional: Black pepper to taste, chili powder to taste, chopped jalapeno peppers to taste)
cook pasta for 8 minutes (not fully cooked), then drain and set aside in a casserole dish.
Make the roux by: melting the smart balance (may substitute butter or margarine) and when melted, remove from heat and stir in the 2 tbsp rice or other gluten free flour. Stir in the milk and return to heat (on low). Stir in onion, garlic, seasonings, and when hot, add cheese. Stir until melted and then turn off heat.
Pour over pasta and stir if needed. Cook the pasta with cheese mixture in a 350 degree oven for 30-40 minutes, covered for 20, uncovered for remainder if you want to brown the top.
For some reason the automated recipe calculator wouldn't let me add black pepper and forced me to choose grams for the rice flour, sorry! It weighed out at 16 g but was measured about 2 tbsp.
Serving Size: makes six servings
