@lq4chevelle Год назад

Hey bro, I enjoy your low calorie recipes & in particular ice cream videos! If I may suggest: try to boil your pasta in a small amount of water (just enough to cover the noodles) & pull the pasta a bit sooner (when it's al dente), do not rinse it, then you will retain all the starches that were washed away - this is the reason sauces don't stick to your noodles. The glue is being diluted in a huge amount of water and also rinsed away. You can get Penne or even spaghetti noodles to cling to sauce with this technique.

@RahulKamat Год назад

Thanks for the tip dude! I’ve done the small amount of water to cook pasta without draining it for single serve pasta recipes, but never for a big batch. I should try it out!

@jesusthroughmary Год назад

Would the same technique work if you boiled the pasta in bone broth instead of water?

@lumpyspacecadet 10 месяцев назад

Don't you want to wash away the starch of the pasta? You will lower the glycemic load of the pasta if it's cooked longer and rinsed really well. It might take away from the sauce's ability to stick to it as well, but it's better for not getting too carried away with carbs.

How many calories in the cheese packet?

@missmayflower 8 месяцев назад

I’m against making too many dishes/pots to wash. Rather than cold rinse the macaroni, just rinse and toss back in the hot pot with the sauce. I would also add frozen mixed veggies to the boiling water at the end of the macaroni cooking time. I love your idea of adding the chicken.

@Tamarocker88 Год назад

This recipe has astronomical sodium content between the cheese powder, added shredded cheese, and the cottage cheese. I recommend using no salt added cottage cheese whenever possible, because a lot of varieties have 400-500mg PER 1/2c SERVING.

@jesusthroughmary Год назад

Agreed, I can't stomach no salt added cottage cheese on its own but with this there is already so much in the cheese packets that it would work

@Amit yeah I'm not a fan of artificial sweeteners. I'd rather use a very small amount of real sugar than all the "calorie free" sweeteners. No such thing as a free lunch, so it can't be good for us.

@Tontoquienloleation Год назад

I'm on keto and I eat shirataki or konjac noodles. They're super bland and the texture is off, so I try to make a really good and flavourful sauce to cancel the awkwardness of the noodles. Anyway give shirataki noodles a try.

@kryptdude5292 11 месяцев назад

I like most of your recipes but this one doesnt fit your M.O. You generally make normal foods with less calories. In this recipe you literally add calories with the cottage cheese and cheddar. For people who struggle with portion control, this little bowl of mac and cheese at 500 calories is not going to be sustaining or filling. I know youve added protein but what good is that to someone who overeats? Why not just eat the regular mac and cheese, which is already delicious and then add chicken or beef?

@healgoth 5 месяцев назад

Why? 1 cup Cottage Cheese = 25g protein… it’s not a “low calorie” recipe it’s “high protein” so he adds meat AND makes the sauce higher protein than if made with the box recommended basic fats (milk/butter)

@Tamarocker88 Год назад

I mean, he lost a lot of weight so he clearly knows what dieting and exercise are... Nutrition may have its holes, like in this case with the sodium and simple carbs, but that can be alleviated by substituting whole grain pasta and using no-salt-added cottage cheese instead. Without adding all the salt from the cottage cheese, I'd say it's a healthier alternative to using whole milk and butter for the standard preparation.
