Healthy Mac and Cheese
When it comes to comfort food, mac and cheese is a classic that’s hard to beat. But the traditional recipe isn’t exactly the healthiest option out there. That’s where our mac and cottage cheese comes in!
By using a mix of Brancourts Cottage Cheese and traditional cheddar cheese, we’ve found a way to make this beloved dish better for you, but without sacrificing any of that creamy, cheesy goodness! Our cottage cheese is packed with more protein and calcium; two essential nutrients that help keep your body strong and healthy, and is lower in fat than cheddar cheese, making it a great alternative.
Creamy & Cheesy Mac and Cheese Recipe
To create this mouth-watering macaroni and cheese made with cottage cheese, you’ll need:
- 4 cups macaroni
- 500g of your favourite Brancourts Cottage Cheese
- 150g grated cheddar cheese
- 100f sour cream
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- Salt and pepper
Once your macaroni is cooked to perfection, it’s time to bring everything together. Drain that pasta well and pour it right into the pot with your luscious cheese sauce. Give it a good stir, making sure your macaroni gets coated in that creamy, dreamy cheese with cottage cheese goodness. Season to taste and serve it piping hot.
Cottage Cheese Cheese Sauce
The real star of this dish is truly the cottage cheese cheese sauce. It’s the secret ingredient that takes this mac and cheese from ordinary to extraordinary, and it’s all thanks to our very own Brancourts Cottage Cheese.
