Please Cheese me!

Recipe from Hungry Girl. This is right up my ally!! I love mac-n-cheese but I don't like all the calories. This recipe caught my eye for many reasons: 1. it's mac-n-cheese 2. pasta 3. laughing cow cheese (I love it) 4. veggies.

Ingredients:

6 cups (about 24 oz.) frozen Green Giant Cauliflower & Cheese Sauce

2 cups uncooked whole wheat blend rotini pasta

3 wedges The Laughing Cow Light Original Swiss cheese

Optional: salt and black pepper, to taste

Directions:

Prepare pasta according to the instructions on the box, and then drain well and set aside. While pasta is cooking, place contents of the cauliflower & sauce package in a large microwave-safe bowl. Cover and microwave for 12 - 16 minutes, until sauce has melted and cauliflower is hot.
Once the bowl is cool enough to handle, remove it from the microwave and add cooked pasta. Set aside. Unwrap cheese wedges and place in a small microwave-safe dish. Microwave for 30 seconds. Stir until smooth, and then add to the bowl.
Mix thoroughly, ensuring that the Laughing Cow cheese is evenly distributed and the pasta and cauliflower are coated in cheese sauce. If you like, season to taste with salt and pepper.

Enjoy!

BBQ sauce review

One of my recipes need a light BBQ sauce. I found Kraft Original Light!!! I was hoping it was good and it was!! Score! I love it when you find something and it works out. It tasted just like regular BBQ sauce. I used this for my BBQ pizza and it tasted great. I would recommend this product to anyone looking for a light BBQ Sauce.
