Simple, Healthy Macaroni & Cheese

3

I have loved mac and cheese all my life, but have recently made it a point (well, usually!) to avoid as much saturated fat and white pasta & flour products as I can. This recipe meets those critera, and although it looks a little different due to the whole wheat ingredients, it tastes just like the real thing:)

Ingredients: [‘canola oil’, ‘whole wheat flour’, ‘skim milk’, ‘season salt’, ‘velveeta reduced fat cheese product’, ‘kraft 2%25 milk shredded cheddar cheese’, ‘whole wheat elbow macaroni’, ‘salt’, ‘italian seasoned breadcrumbs’]

Quantity of Ingredients: [“3 tablespoons canola oil”,”3 tablespoons whole wheat flour”,”1 3/4 cups skim milk”,”1 teaspoon season salt”,”1/2 lb Velveeta reduced fat cheese product”,”1/2 cup KRAFT 2% Milk Shredded Cheddar Cheese”,”8 ounces whole wheat elbow macaroni”,”1/2 teaspoon salt”,”1/4 cup Italian seasoned breadcrumbs”]

Number of Servings: 6

Steps: [‘Boil macaroni & 1/2 tsp white salt in water until soft (about 10 minutes or follow package directions).’, ‘While macaroni cooks, stir canola oil and flour together in a small saucepan until it boils.’, ‘Add milk while continuing to stir.
