#Mac&Cheese #Macandcheese #Food
I grew up eating macaroni and cheese but we called it cheese macaroni for some reason. But we all know that mac & cheese isn't the healthiest of foods. I mean it's carbs and fats and that's not always a good combo. But we're going to make a lower calorie and healthy mac and cheese that is fewer calories but just as delicious. You'll love it!!!

I am an Italian that got fat and prediabetic eating pasta. So keto for me. I have a couple suggestions for you to try. Use a touch of dry mustard powder to the roux plus a pinch of red pepper. To the cheese mix add some cooked and mashed butternut squash. It really extends serving size and adds a great flavor.

@sassykat2000 3 года назад

Great suggestions to add! Thanks 😊

@mellymel8157 3 года назад

I was thinking the dry mustard, too. And white pepper is good as well.

You can put chicken stock in as well. I usually make mine with condensed milk. It makes it creamy and also add Velveeta cheese. It makes it ssoooooo creamy. You should try it sometime and add your chicken and veggies. Its so good..!!!

@silverbane8065 3 года назад

You could swap the beef cube for other flavour cubes if you want lighter coloured sauce. Chicken cube with chicken added would double the chicken flavour ^^

@@karminiparsan9256 we get this Swiss bullion powder in tubs here in UK. Used to be just in health food shops (organic and vegan versions) but then supermarkets started selling it. That stuff is golden! I always keep the vegi version in my store cupboard cause it can help to flavour soups stews and casserole. And a couple teaspoons in hot water for a mug of vegi broth if I'm just a teeny bit peckish

@BlackFiresong 11 месяцев назад

I just want to say - I am the sort of person who loves to constantly try new dishes as I feel like life is too short to repeat meals. However, this is one of those rare dishes that I have cooked multiple times. It's officially become something I cook regularly, and I absolutely love it! Feels so good to be able to have mac and cheese and feel like I'm eating a healthy meal. Feels so much more satiating than a supermarket ready meal mac and cheese as well, thanks to the added chicken and veggies. I personally prefer to use a chicken stock cube in the milk, as I find the beef one a little overpowering, but that's just my personal taste. I do want to experiment with a few other flavour variations as well to enhance the established recipe, like maybe cooking the chicken with some garlic and other seasonings to add a bit of extra oomph. Trying to perfect it until it becomes a family mac and cheese recipe that I can pass onto my hypothetical children. 😂 Thanks ever so much for sharing this recipe. I really need to cook more of your stuff!

@HeadbangersKitchen 11 месяцев назад

When I used to cook boxed mac & cheese, I would add frozen mixed veggies for color and a can of tuna for protein. If it was the tuna in oil, I would use the oil in place of some of the butter.

@melanieleopold9855 10 месяцев назад

I made this chicken recipe with some of this. Just a sprinkle, salt pepper garlic & onion powder, turmeric, a can of coconut milk, 1 packet of taco seasoning. Cooked for about 25 minutes. Added meat (chopped about an inch), cooked macaroni & 1/2 bag (32 Oz of frozen broccoli) baked with liquid from chicken with added taco cheese & baked for 30 minutes It’s wonderful!

@melanieleopold9855 10 месяцев назад

@NoNo-vl7kt 3 года назад

This looks realy good! Tip: if you take the flour from the heat you can pour your very cold milk/water into it without it getting lumpsy(? Sorry, forgott tue right word). After that you can heat it up and it gets very creamy but is not as mich stiring as with warm milk...

The great thing about having an Indian mom is that all Italian food (and any food for that matter) got an Indian twist... so our pasta would have tons of Indian spices, garlic and chili... that plus a goood helping of melty cheese ...

@Primal391 3 года назад

Have you tried to see what the flavor is with unsweetened almond milk and fat free cheeses? Probably Drop a ton of calories with those comparatively. Might even be able to add more cheese since you are cutting calories overall if wanted.

@HeadbangersKitchen 3 года назад

It would work but it would totally change the flavour to nutty. I recently got some vegan cheese, not a patch on the real deal. Same with almond milk and stuff they have their own 'flavour'. I don't mind it with like granola and sweetish stuff like using it in pancake recipes but not in mac and cheese. It's too much of a compromise for me. I mean you can get fat free cheese and stuff but they taste like garbage.

Headbanger's Kitchen Thanks 👍🏻

@Nomadic.A 3 года назад

Not sure how it's lower calorie...adding water to milk doesn't make it skim milk lol... but I also eat Mac and cheese this way, same veggie mix.

@HeadbangersKitchen 3 года назад

I mean it's more diluted so the fat is cut in 1/2, maybe that's still more than skim milk but you get the idea. And it's lower calorie because we measure out the cheese. It's 339 calories per serving I'm positive that's lower calorie than most home made servings. But low calorie is more seo/search and at the end of the day it boils down to how much you consume of something. One serving of this + that 100g of lean chicken breast and 100g of veggies will make an extremely filling version and keep the calories down than if you had it with more cheese and no veggies you'd just eat a lot more of the mac and cheese itself.

@nataliaemanuel64 3 года назад

Can we eat pasta if we are on a keto diet? I am confused.

Nope, this is not a Keto recipe. My Keto recipes say so in the title. This is just a normal healthy mac and cheese recipe. You can however use Keto pasta like Shiratake noodles/pasta which you can buy online.

Well because we're measuring out things and especially the cheese. So one serving of this Mac & Cheese is 339 calories compared to when people go nuts on the cheese and full fat milk and add cream etc. And once you have it with like 100g of lean chicken breast and 100g of mixed boiled veggies it's a meal that will keep you full and satiated. Honestly this shit is just search terms like lower calorie or whatever but in the end it's down to people and how much they eat and how they eat it.

@redhotz21 10 месяцев назад

I have recently been checking into your videos. Your keto videos were one of my go to channels a couple years ago during the pandemic. Now, I can see you personally have gone a different direction into higher protein, so your videos reflect that. But I cannot do meals with 42 gm carbs on a regular basis. They start food cravings all over again for me. I have tried for a year now to go 50 gm a day to fit in more with life. But it has lead to big appetite, 15 pounds gained, and a 5.7 a1c pre-diabetic. Sorry, you are a wonderful creator, in dishes and personality, but I just cannot follow along your current trend

@HeadbangersKitchen 10 месяцев назад

Sure no problem. I understand that. I just do recipes now, not even the high protein stuff. I changed to eating everything in moderation and that works for me. Appreciate all the support in the past, the Keto recipes all remain online for you whenever you need them. Cheers!
