- "They'll never know we sneaked out 10 grams of fat per serving because this macaroni and cheese is as good as even BETTER than - the old-favorite recipe."
- Beginning about 45 min before serving:
- Prepare macaroni as label directs but don't add in salt to water; drain.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Spray shallow, broiler-safe, 2 1/2-qt casserole with nonstick cooking spray.
- In food processor with knife blade attached, blend cottage cheese till smooth. (Or possibly, in blender at high speed, blend cottage cheese with 1/4 c. of the lowfat milk called for in recipe, for easier blending.)
- In 2-qt saucepan, mix flour with 1/4 c. lowfat milk till smooth. Slowly stir in remaining c. lowfat milk till blended. Cook over medium heat till mix just boils and thickens slightly, stirring frequently. Remove saucepan from heat; stir in cottage cheese, Cheddar, salt, pepper and nutmeg.
- Place macaroni in casserole; cover with cheese sauce. Bake, uncovered, 20 min.
- Remove casserole from oven. Turn oven control to broil. SprinkleParmesan cheese on top of macaroni mix.
- Place casserole in broiler at closest position to source of heat; broil 2 to 3 min till top is golden.
- This recipe that I've made and enjoyed, comes from the September 1995 issue of Good Housekeeping.
