Butternut Squash Mac n’ Cheese [Recipe]

Who doesn’t crave the comfort of mac n’ cheese this time of year?! But all that butter, cheese and cream can be hard to “afford” if you’re keeping your nutrition in check! Well we have the perfect compromise with this quick to make, low-fat version. It makes for a great holiday side dish that even your vegan friends and family can enjoy too!

If you want to make it a bit fancier try adding it to a baking dish with herbed breadcrumbs and bake it until the bread crumbs start to crisp up and turn golden brown.

Want to turn this into a main course option? Add some spiced ground beef to really give this dish a satisfying depth of flavor.

Easily transform these into cute little bite-size apps by dividing the recipe into a small muffin tin and baking in the oven at 425 for about 8-10 minutes.  Voila! Mini Mac n’ Cheese bites! ?
