Quick & Easy High Protein Creamy Mac & Cheese 🧀 #mealprep #highprotein #lowcalorie #healthyrecipes

I don't care about losing weight this mac looks fantastic!

you can replace the cream with Greek yogurt it will give the same texture and creamness at the end plus extra protein

The method of boiling pasta until water is gone then using evap milk was popularized by Kenji. Love that recipe.

People need to stop sleeping on Nutritional Yeast. I'm not a vegan, but my roommate made vegan "cheese" sauce with cashews and Nutritional Yeast and other spices and it is BALLER Also, it is gas on your popcorn. Highly recommend

"Sounds Something like this" I miss her😭

This is another great idea…i also love the idea of blending good quality cottage cheese along with evaporated milk which totally adds to the creamy you’re seeking. The addition of nutritional yeast is brilliant!! 😋

It will help you lose weight. Me on my 3rd bowl in less than an hour - Yep it is helping alright.

I would recommend protein rich mix ins as well. Also, mix ins are a good way to add flavor and nutritional value, spinach is a really good one, though, you should cook the spinach with the noodles for best results.

I add carmelized onions and low fat hamburger meat, chopped red bell peppers, and sneak in some jalapenos!! (im Texan)

The video versus actual recipe is a bit off, but overall this is actually pretty good and not terrible for you. I think a lot of you are just bad at reading comprehension as well. Here are some things to be aware of when making this: 1. The recipe calls for fat free EVAPORATED milk, NOT CONDENSED. Very different. One is going to have a ton of sugar. The other won't. 2. He does not specify to use reduced fat cheese in the video, but the recipe does call it out. That will lower your fat content by a fair amount. 3. Yes, pasta has carbs. We all know this. Babies know this. You're not a fitness guru for pointing this out. The recipe is meant to be low fat, high protein. If you also want low carbs, just switch out the pasta for some kind of lentil pasta or other alternative. 4. Probably the stupidest thing missing is a measurement for water, especially since it instructs you to reduce it by half. Half of what? I simply eyeballed how much water I would need to use in order to cover the pasta by about half an inch. From that experience, I recommend using a little less. If you pour the pasta into the boiling water and it looks to be too much, just carefully dump a bit out. I followed the recipe but missed the fact that it calls for low fat cheese, and a fourth of it still comes out to be 522 calories, 71g carbs, 13g fat, 28g protein. Obviously if I used reduced fat cheese it would look a little different, but if you are not carb counting this really isn't that bad nutritionally. Tastes good too.

This looks amamzing but I need data to back your 50g protien claim. That seems a bit high even for Protein mac and cheese that doesn't use cottage cheese.

food looks good! you earned a sub

You can't allow a 50% reduction of boiling water when your pasta reaches aldente in approx 9mins. The pasta will be overdone and pasty.

I put it in my food diary and only worked out to be 29g of protein FYI.

This mac and cheese looks so delicious

I’m sorry, but that mac & cheese looks so good to the point where I’m not gonna lose weight because I’m just gonna eat so much of it😂

I’m not really looking to bulk up, I just needed a decent recipe I could use for evaporated milk. This looks like it’ll do nicely.

I made this for my wife and kids, they loved it

Add some grilled shrimp for that extra yummy 😋 ❤
