LOW CARB MACAPHONY AND CHEESE



Low Carb Macaphony and Cheese image

Spread it thin and cook it longer for better texture! This recipe is from my low carb days. I made it often. It is all natural and rich and a very good fix for a pasta craving. Cooking time includes 30 minutes for drain time.

Time 1h45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

12 ounces firm tofu
8 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, grated
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup cream
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1 dash cayenne
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon dry mustard
paprika
parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Drain tofu well (I let mine sit in the colander for awhile and then I squish out even more liquid with my hands).
  • Mix all ingredients together mashing the tofu well (but leaving a few chunky pieces),.
  • Place in a buttered casserole dish.
  • Sprinkle with Parmesan and a little paprika.
  • Bake at 350°F for 45 minutes.
  • The top should be golden brown (its the crispy brown parts that really give it the flavor).

LOW CARB MACTOFUNI & CHEESE



Low Carb Mactofuni & Cheese image

About once a year I used to call Mom and ask her yet again for the baked macaroni and cheese recipe she always made me when I was little. It's not anything like the ultra-cheesy stuff most people call mac & cheese, but I love it anyhow. Since I'm eating lowcarb these days, here's what I eat instead, in a pasta-substitute version...

Categories     Cheese

Time 50m

Yield 2-3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/4 cup half-and-half
3/4 cup water, room temperature
2 teaspoons dried onion flakes
1/2 teaspoon curry powder
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (to taste)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
3 -4 cups small-cubed extra firm tofu, drained well
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 cup whole-milk yogurt
4 -5 teaspoons butter
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
crunched-up spicy pork rinds (optional)

Steps:

  • Mix together the half and half, water, dried onion, curry powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  • Set it aside so the onion can absorb some of the liquid.
  • In a large bowl, gently toss together the cubed tofu, grated cheddar, and yogurt.
  • Put the cubed tofu mixture in a large baking dish (you'll need one with a lid).
  • Dot with the teaspoons of butter, then pour the milk/onion mixture over.
  • Sprinkle Parmesan (and crunched pork rinds, if using) over the top.
  • Cover with glass lid and bake at about 350 for about 40 minutes (you can take off the lid for the last 5 minutes to get the rinds a little crisp).
