ONE-POT BROCCOLI MAC AND CHEESE



One-Pot Broccoli Mac and Cheese image

In the time it takes to make boxed macaroni and cheese, you can have a homemade version that's creamy with lots of sharp Cheddar, studded with broccoli and doesn't require making a roux. Instead, the sauce is thickened by the pasta's starch: As the noodles cook in milk, the milk thickens to the consistency of cream and the pasta absorbs the seasonings. Here, that's garlic powder, but you could also use mustard powder, ground cayenne or grated nutmeg like in traditional mac and cheese. The broccoli pieces end up soft and sweet, but if you want more bite, add them halfway through cooking.

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 pound elbow macaroni
1 pound broccoli, stem and florets coarsely chopped
2 1/2 cups whole milk
2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more to taste
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
8 ounces coarsely grated sharp Cheddar (about 2 cups)
Black pepper

Steps:

  • In a large pot or skillet, combine the macaroni, broccoli, milk, salt and garlic powder. Add 3 cups of water, and stir to combine. (The pasta may not be fully submerged. That's OK!) Bring to an active simmer over medium-high. Reduce the heat to medium to gently simmer. Cook, stirring often to ensure even cooking and to keep things from sticking to the bottom of the pot, until the pasta is tender, and the liquid resembles heavy cream and coats the noodles, 8 to 12 minutes. If the liquid evaporates so much that you don't see any between noodles, add 1/2 cup water. Adjust the heat as needed to maintain a gentle simmer.
  • Remove from heat and stir in the Cheddar. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Eat!

Provided by Eric Greenspan

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h20m

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 16

Nonstick cooking spray
1 acorn squash, halved and seeded
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 cups broccoli florets
1 teaspoon olive oil
6 ounces elbow macaroni
3 cups cauliflower florets
1 teaspoon unsalted butter
1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
1 1/4 cups vegetable broth
1 cup shredded reduced-fat Cheddar
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
1/4 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a rimmed baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Spray the cut sides of the squash with nonstick cooking spray and season with salt and pepper. Place cut-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Roast in the oven until fork tender, about 40 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool. Increase the oven temperature to 450 degrees F.
  • Toss the broccoli with the olive oil on a rimmed baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper and roast in the oven until tender, about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and switch the oven to broil.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the macaroni and cauliflower and cook until both are tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Drain then transfer to a large bowl.
  • Meanwhile, melt the butter in a small saucepan. Pour into a small heatproof bowl; add the panko, Parmesan and thyme. Stir to combine and set aside.
  • Pour the vegetable broth into the same small saucepan and warm over medium heat. Transfer to a blender. Scoop the squash flesh into the blender. Add the Cheddar, feta, yogurt, paprika, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper. Carefully blend until smooth. Pour over the macaroni and cauliflower in the large bowl.
  • Add the roasted broccoli to the large bowl and toss with the sauce, pasta and cauliflower until thoroughly coated. Transfer to a 9-by-13-inch baking dish, cover with the breadcrumbs and broil until browned, about 10 minutes.
