Have you ever had that homemade Mac-n-Cheese that just melts in your mouth and leaves you saying "Blue box who"! This recipe will! Plus it is loaded with fresh veggies, so it is good for you (kind of) too!
Ingredients:
- 4 Tablespoons salted butter
- 4 Tablespoons flour
- 3 cups milk ( I use almond milk, but you can use regular milk)
- 2 cups shredded Velvetta Sharp Cheddar cheese (we don't like regular Velvetta)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 cup cauliflower puree
- 1/2 carrot puree
- 2 heads of broccoli, cut, and steamed
- 1 box elbow noodles
1. Boil pasta according to box directions and drain water off.
2. In a medium saucepan, melt butter, and stir in flour over medium heat. Stir in milk until mixed well. Bring to a slow boil and simmer until thick.
3. Stir in cheese and continue to stir for 4 minutes, remove from heat.
4. Stir in Vegetable purees, and pour over pasta. once mixed thoroughly, stir in Broccoli and serve!
You may not use all the cheese sauce, but, if you like it dripping with cheesy-goodness, go ahead, we won't judge!
My kids LOVE this, and ask for it EVERY meatless Monday dinner! Its great for even picky eaters!
