Is there anything better than creamy, dreamy mac and cheese? On your worst days it\u2019s there to comfort you, and on your best days it feels like a celebration. No one \u2014 and I mean no one \u2014 doesn\u2019t like mac and cheese. And it\u2019s surprisingly easy to make your favorite dish just a little more healthful. By sneaking in some roasted vegetables or amping up the protein with alternative pasta, you don\u2019t have to sacrifice flavor for a more nutrient-dense meal. Here are 10 healthier mac and cheese recipes.<\/p>\n

1. Instant Pot Cauliflower Mac and Cheese<\/a><\/h2>\n

Bookmark this Instant Pot recipe when you need mac and cheese in a hurry. It only takes four minutes to make after the pot comes to pressure! The healthy twist? Grated cauliflower. Erin of Well Plated says that no one ever<\/em> guesses that there\u2019s an added vegetable in this dish \u2014 even kids.<\/p>\n

2. Vegan Butternut Squash Mac And Cheese<\/a><\/h2>\n

The \u201ccheese\u201d sauce in this macaroni and cheese is a mix of cashews, butternut squash, nutritional yeast, Dijon mustard, and spices. The butternut squash is responsible for that traditional orange color you normally find with cheddar, and it\u2019s packed with nutrients like Vitamin A and Vitamin C. The gourd also adds a nice, subtle sweetness to the dish when it\u2019s roasted beforehand.<\/p>\n

3. Roasted Vegetable Macaroni and Cheese<\/a><\/h2>\n

The easiest way to make your macaroni and cheese a little more healthful is by adding some vegetables. This recipe calls for adding a sheet pan of roasted peppers, squash, broccoli, and mushrooms and also lightens up the sauce a little by using evaporated 2% milk instead of heavy cream.<\/p>\n

4. Lighter Baked Macaroni and Cheese<\/a><\/h2>\n

Leave it to Giada de Laurentiis to create a recipe that looks and tastes like a full-fat macaroni and cheese, but is sneakily lightened up. Her trick? She swaps in Greek yogurt for butter, and adds crushed rice cereal for the perfect crunchy top and a boost of fiber. She also recommends using gluten-free noodles here (if that\u2019s your thing).<\/p>\n

5. Baked Spaghetti Squash and Cheese<\/a><\/h2>\n

For a low-carb option, swap the noodles for spaghetti squash! It\u2019s easier to prepare than you think: Roast your squash, cut it open, and scrap out the \u201cnoodles.\u201d Then you add the squash to your cheese sauce and bake.<\/p>\n

6. Protein Baked Mac and Cheese<\/a><\/h2>\n

This recipe amps up the protein in traditional mac and cheese by using chickpea pasta and Greek yogurt. I\u2019m a huge<\/em> fan of chickpea pasta. It\u2019s delightfully nutty and has a great bite \u2014 and I would reach for it even if it didn\u2019t have the added nutritional benefit.<\/p>\n

\"Tuscan

7. Tuscan Chicken Mac and Cheese<\/a><\/h2>\n

Another way to add protein to your mac and cheese is simply by adding animal protein! This Tuscan-inspired recipe from Cafe Delites uses paprika-spiced chicken, mushrooms, sun-dried tomatoes, and spinach. It\u2019s a little more work intensive than the other recipes on this list, but it\u2019s worth the effort.<\/p>\n

8. Buffalo Cauliflower Mac<\/a><\/h2>\n

Kick your mac and cheese up a notch in health and flavor by adding some spicy cauliflower to the mix. This hot take on clean comfort uses gluten-free macaroni noodles loaded with buffalo-spiced roasted cauliflower and baked up in a vegan cheesy sauce to make a dish you’ll dream about.<\/p>\n

9. Green Mac and Cheese<\/a><\/h2>\n

This delicious creamy dairy-free mac and cheese has a secret. It\u2019s packed with cauliflower, potatoes, and spinach greens you don’t even taste! Talk about sneaking in some veggies.<\/p>\n

10. Vegan Caramelized Onion Mac and Cheese<\/a><\/h2>\n

Who would have thought the creamiest mac \u2018n\u2019 cheese ever is made with a simple eggplant-based cheese sauce? Throw in some caramelized onions and toasted breadcrumbs send to send this dish over the top.<\/p>\n
