I love Mac and Cheese. In fact I love pasta. Be it cream based like Carbonara or oil based like Aglio Olio, I’m up for it. However I always try to “health up” my pasta especially now that N is eating the same dish. So here’s my toddler version of Mac and Cheese.

 

Mac Carrot and Cheese

  • 1 serve of macaroni, boiled as per instruction and drained
  • 1 sausage, cut small.
  • 1 cube of puréed carrot
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/4 onion, thinly sliced
  • cheese, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon of oil
  • a pinch of pepper, to taste
  • some broccoli, steamed

 

Instructions
  1. Boil macaroni as per instruction and drain, set aside.
  2. Steam broccoli, set aside.
  3. Heat oil in a pan, stir fry garlic and onion until fragrant.
  4. Add sausage, cooked macaroni, pureed carrot and cheese. Mix well.
  5. Season with pepper to taste.
  6. Serve with steamed broccoli on the side and enjoy!

 

Note:

1. Alternatively, the broccoli can be cut into small pieces and mixed into the dish. N loves steamed broccoli and eats them like chips so I leave them as is.

2. Depending on the consistency of the carrot puree, the dish might be a bit dry. Add a splash of milk to make it creamier.
