Step-by-Step Instructions
- Bring a medium pot of water to a rolling boil over high heat. Add the whole wheat pasta and cook according to package instructions for 8-10 minutes, until al dente. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking, then drain and set aside in the pot, leaving it covered to keep warm.
- In a non-stick skillet, heat over medium heat and add the cornstarch. Stir continuously for 1-2 minutes to activate it, releasing a slight nutty aroma.
- Gradually whisk in the unsweetened almond milk while continuing to stir to ensure a lump-free consistency. Cook this mixture for 3-4 minutes until it thickens slightly and coats the back of a spoon.
- Reduce the heat to low and add the non-fat Greek yogurt to the skillet. Stir gently until the yogurt melts and blends smoothly with the sauce.
- Stir in the low-fat shredded cheddar cheese and grated Parmesan until they melt completely into the sauce.
- Sprinkle in the garlic powder, onion powder, mustard powder, salt, and black pepper, mixing well to combine.
- Add the cooked pasta back into the pot, followed by the shredded chicken breast if using. Carefully mix everything together.
- Once heated, spoon the Low Calorie High Protein Mac and Cheese into bowls. Serve immediately.
