I'm not going to lie... this takes nothing like the gooey, fatty, classic mac and cheese. However, it's a great substitute when you are craving that home-style cooking and want a healthier alternative.
Ingredients:
Olive oil or cooking spray (I shared examples of both in the pictures above)
1 1/2 cups quinoa, cooked (instructions for cooking quinoa are on the box--feel free to send me questions!)
A few grinds of garlic salt
2 large eggs
1 cup soy milk (or milk of choice)
1 1/2 cups grated non-fat cheddar cheese (or cheese of choice)
Feel free to add veggies, more cheese, etc to you liking
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Coat 13x9 inch dish with cooking spray or olive oil
Whisk together eggs and milk in a large bowl
Heat up your quinoa in the microwave if it's not already slightly warm
Fold in quinoa and cheese (into the bowl with the eggs and milk)
Add a few grinds/shakes of garlic salt
Feel free to add in chopped veggies, additional cheese, additional seasoning, etc here
Bake 35 minutes (or until browned around edges)
Enjoy!
