Mimolette and Cauliflower Floret Macaroni Bake 🧀🥦
INGREDIENTS
1 large head of cauliflower, cut into bite-sized florets (low-carb macaroni swap)
1.5 cups Mimolette cheese, shredded
1 cup cottage cheese, blended until completely smooth
1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
1/4 cup unflavored whey protein powder
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1/2 tsp garlic powder
Salt and paprika to taste
INSTRUCTIONS
Steam the cauliflower florets for 5-7 minutes until tender-crisp. Drain very thoroughly and pat dry to avoid wateriness.
In a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, combine the blended cottage cheese, almond milk, whey protein powder, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, and salt. Whisk until warm.
Stir in 1 cup of the bright orange shredded Mimolette cheese until completely melted into a rich sauce.
Add the cauliflower florets into the cheese sauce and toss to coat beautifully. Transfer into a baking dish.
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of Mimolette cheese and a dust of paprika over the top.
Bake for 20 minutes until the top cheese layer is perfectly melted and slightly crisp around the edges.
