Macaroni Cheese with Hidden Veg

This butternut squash macaroni cheese is a healthier version of a fairly unhealthy dish. The cheese sauce is made using butternut squash, cooked until tender in almond milk and then pureed. The cheese is melted into this sauce and then mixed with wholewheat pasta for a nutrient packed meal. My children will happily eat this and don't realise the sauce is made with veg! #FamilyFriendly

Steps

  1. 1

    Put the squash, almond milk, rosemary and the peeled, quartered garlic cloves in a large saucepan. Heat the milk until it is almost boiling, then turn the heat down and simmer gently with the lid on the pan. Stir the squash every now and then to ensure all of the vegetables are submerged in the milk. Cook for 30 minutes, or until very tender.

  2. 2

    Remove the woody stalks of the rosemary, then allow the squash to cool slightly before blending until smooth and silky with no lumps.

  3. 3

    Pour the sauce back into the pan and stir in 80g of the cheese (saving approximately 20g for serving).

  4. 4

    Cook the wholewheat pasta according to the packets instructions. When cooked, drain and mix with the cheese sauce. Top the pasta with the remaining cheese and brown under the grill before serving.
