Hidden Veggie Mac and Cheese
- 1 cup cauliflower florets
- 1 cup sweet potato (peeled and cubed)
- 1 cup milk
- 1.5 cup grated yellow or white cheddar cheese
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
- 1 Kg pasta
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Add the cauliflower and sweet potato and cook for about 10 minutes or until soft when poked with a fork. Use a large slotted spoon to transfer the veggies to a blender, draining off all the liquid.
- Add the milk, cheese, butter, salt, and garlic powder, if using, to the blender with the veggies and puree until completely smooth.
- Meanwhile, bring the water back to a boil and cook the pasta according to package directions. Drain and return to the pot.
- Stir in the cheese sauce, season to taste with additional salt, if needed, and serve warm.
