Mighty Man Mac n Cheese

[Dependable Dog]

I've been craving some mac and cheese. I found a recipe for a healthy version online, but it still wasn't all that healthy. So, here is what I created.

Ingredients:
3 tablespoons plain dry breadcrumbs
10-ounce package spinach
2 cups almond milk
30grams protein powder
1 Egg
2 cups shredded extra-sharp Cheddar cheese
1 cup low-fat cottage cheese
1/4 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground pepper, to taste
4 cups whole-wheat elbow macaroni, or penne

wait you used strawberry banana protein? didnt that kill the taste?

Should have done this last week, I forgot about my spinach and it got bad

[Dependable Dog]

No, used vanilla. (Last protein order was from Smart Powders. They put the 10lb protein in a bag which is a pain to use everyday, so I just store it in the old ON jug)

That Mac 'n Cheese looks like it's missing about half of the ingredients needed for Mac 'n Cheese

That does not look bad at all. I've always had a problem with doing whole wheat pasta in macaroni & cheese. It didn't occur to me to use spinach to make a richer flavor.

Thanks, I'll try that!

That looks really creative.

Such as-
cheese cottage cheese doesn't melt and make a sauce very well IMO.
