Lower Fat Baked Mac and Cheese Recipe - Food.com image

This is the result of me playing with my MIL's baked mac and cheese recipe. IMHO it captures the flavor and texture of the original recipe without leaving a greasy feeling in the mouth. Hope you enjoy it!

Total Time 40 minutes

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cook Time 25 minutes

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

7 ounces whole wheat elbow macaroni
1/2 cup skim milk
1 tablespoon Smart Balance butter spread
2 ounces Velveeta reduced fat cheese product
3/4 cup reduced-fat sharp cheddar cheese (divided)
1 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
1/4 teaspoon black pepper (or to taste)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 and coat an 8x8 pan with cooking spray.
  • Cook pasta according to box directions until just done. Drain briefly, then return pasta to the cooking pot (it should still be warm).
  • Add Smart Balance, Velveeta, milk, and 1/2 c cheddar cheese and stir until the cheeses melt. You may need to put the pan back on a burner for this.
  • Pour pasta mixture into greased pan and bake for 15 minutes.
  • Sprinkle remaining 1/4 c cheese on top and bake another 5-10 minutes, or until cheese is melted and the top is as crunchy as you like it :).
