Healthy Macaroni and Cheese


Macaroni and cheese is always a winner with children. It is the ultimate comfort food for kids and adults alike. The brilliant thing about this recipe is that this is a much healthier macaroni and cheese because it is packed with vegetables. I know from the picture I bet you are doubting me. But trust me there is more vegetables in this recipe than there is cheese sauce.

  • 1 1/2 Cup uncooked pasta (macaroni, penne, spirals etc)
  • 400g cauliflower (approx. half a small cauliflower)

  • 2 Tbsp plain flour
  • 1 medium onion finely diced
