My daughter loves mac and cheese. A lot. Probably more than anyone should.
Given this, I can't bring myself to make boxed, prepackaged varieties for her, regardless how easy they are and how tired I am after work. Today, in a pinch, I decided to make a variety on my own, with only the ingredients I had in my refrigerator.
Ingredients:
2.5 cups whole grain noodles, uncooked
2 cups cauliflower, chopped small
1 block extra sharp white cheddar cheese, cut into small pieces 2 Tablespoons flax seeds
1 Tablespoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon mustard seeds
1 teaspoon ground mustard
Salt and pepper, to taste
2 cups unsweetened coconut milk
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
Directions
Put everything in a crock pot and cook on low for two hours, stirring occasionally. Once complete, season to taste. I particularly like adding dill.
The only ingredient I want to eliminate is the heavy whipping cream, but it was all I had in lieu of regular milk. I will post an update next time!
