Ingredients
For one serving. Tap an ingredient to see its nutrition.
⅛ head small Cauliflower
¼ cloves, minced Garlic
½ tbsp Butter
⅜ cup Chicken broth- ⅛ cup 2% milk
⅛ tbsp Canola oil- 🥄⅛ tsp Salt
⅜ cup, pieces or slices White mushrooms
⅛ cup, shredded Swiss cheese
2 oz Whole wheat pasta
Directions
- 1
Preheat the oven to 400° F. Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
- 2
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta until al dente according to package directions, then drain and toss with a little oil to prevent sticking.
- 3
In a separate pot, boil the cauliflower until just tender, about 5 minutes; drain well.
- 4
Meanwhile, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a skillet over medium heat and sauté the garlic until fragrant, 30–60 seconds; do not brown.
- 5
Transfer the cooked cauliflower to a blender with 2 cups broth, the milk, oil, salt, and the sautéed garlic. Blend until completely smooth, venting the lid and working in batches if needed.
- 6
Heat the remaining 3 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and cook until golden and their moisture has evaporated, 6–8 minutes.
- 7
In a large bowl, combine the pasta, mushroom mixture, and cauliflower sauce. Stir in up to the remaining 1 cup broth to achieve a loose, creamy consistency.
- 8
Spread the mixture in the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle evenly with the shredded Swiss.
- 9
Bake uncovered until the cheese is melted and bubbly, 10–15 minutes. Stir gently to re-incorporate any released moisture and serve warm. Garnish with chopped fresh sage, if available.
