Rich & Creamy Macaroni & Cheese

Usually here on The Nutritionist Reviews, I feature quite healthy recipes. This recipe my friends is not very healthy at all but is delicious, creamy and filling.  To make it healthier, I recommend using whole wheat macaroni, reduced fat cheese, and having some veggies on the side. Hope you enjoy this easy recipe that is a change-up from my usual ones.

Macaroni and Cheese

 

Ingredients:
1 box pasta (I used Ronzoni Smart Taste)
8 ounces of shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 container Alouette creme fraiche
1/2 teaspoon each of garlic powder and onion powder
3/4 cup panko bread crumbs

Directions:
1. Boil water and cook pasta according to directions on package.
2. Once pasta is cooked, drain well.  Add pasta back to pan.
3. Keep heat on at low and add creme fraiche and cheddar and stir well until cheese is melted.
4. Add the garlic and onion powder and stir.
5. Transfer macaroni and cheese to a glass baking dish and top with breadcrumbs.
6. Bake at 350 degrees until crumbs are crisp and browned.

Enjoy! I loved this recipes and my puppies really enjoyed licking the pan with a little cheese left in it!
