Macaroni and Cheese is always a favorite dish to serve for weeknight suppers, whether you serve it as the main course paired with a tossed salad or as a side (because down South macaroni and cheese is a vegetable, right?). For this butternut squash mac and cheese recipe, we used precooked microwaveable pasta, a popular convenience food product that cuts your prep work during mealtime. A few weeks ago I posted this Cauliflower "Mac" and Cheese recipe that swapped out pasta for cauliflower. Today I bring you this guilt-free mac and cheese recipe.
Step by step To Make 3 Cheese Butternut Squash Mac & Cheese:
- Preheat oven to 400 °.
- Toss squash with olive oil and transfer to a baking sheet. Bake for about 30 minutes, turning halfway through until squash is tender.
- Cook pasta according to the package instructions. Usually about 5-7 minutes until al dente depending on the pasta you choose. Drain pasta and set aside.
- In a large pot over medium high heat, melt butter. Whisk in the flour. Your flour mixture at this point will be thick, lumpy and dry.
- Slowly whisk in the milk a little at a time. Add the dijon mustard and spices. Constantly stir until the flour mixture comes to a boil about 5-7 minutes and thickens.
- Add in cheeses, squash and pasta. Stir just enough to coat and cheese is slightly melted.
- Pour your mac & cheese into an oven proof baking dish. Top with panko breadcrumbs and bake for 20 minutes. If you want, you can just put the mac & cheese under the broiler too for about 2-3 minutes to toast the panko breadcrumbs on top and be done with it. I like to bake mine a little longer until all the cheeses are very melty through the whole dish.
Giving you all the comfort of the classic dish, but with an extra heaping of nutrients. Whisk in stock, then combine with butternut squash until warmed through and smooth. Stir in cream or half-and-half and bring sauce to a bubble. Mac and cheese at it's finest! So creamy, so rich + so amazing yet it's so much healthier than traditional mac and cheese!
