10+ Easy No-Bake Mac & Cheese Recipes EatingWell

12 hours ago

• 1 of 13 1 of 13 More Classic Mac & Cheese 5606651.jpg No sneaky ingredients here, just delicious comfort food. You can enjoy this super-cheesy mac and cheese in the same time it takes to cook the boxed version. Whole-wheat noodles add fiber, while sharp Cheddar adds richness. A hefty twist of black pepper balances the cheese's salty tang.
• 2 of 13 2 of 13 More Quick Stovetop Butternut Squash Mac & Cheese 4784522.jpg Precut butternut squash in your grocery store's produce section makes this healthy mac and cheese recipe come together in a flash. For extra flavor, try smoked Gouda cheese.
• 3 of 13 3 of 13 More Quick Stovetop Mac & Cheese with Peas 4784499.jpg Fresh basil and green peas give this healthy mac and cheese recipe a pretty green hue. We like the buttery, nutty flavor of fontina, but provolone, Gruyère or Gouda could be used as a substitute.
• 4 of 13 4 of 13 More Creamy Mac & Cheese Soup Creamy Mac & Cheese Soup A package of frozen pureed winter squash adds sweetness and good nutrition--namely vitamin A, potassium and fiber--to this soup version of a family favorite, mac and cheese. It also lends its orange color to the soup, making it seem cheesier without actually adding more cheese. Feel free to swap in your favorite shape of medium-size pasta for the elbow macaroni. Using convenience items like the frozen squash means that this healthy kid-friendly dinner takes just 30 minutes to prep.
• 5 of 13 5 of 13 More One-Pot Mac & Cheese with Cauliflower & Brussels Sprouts 6895189.jpg Taking a minute to sizzle some garlic in olive oil is a simple way to pep up the cheese sauce for this easy homemade mac and cheese, and the flavor plays well with the cauliflower and Brussels sprouts in this family-friendly pasta dish. This recipe is designed for you to make a big batch of the cheese sauce to use in different dishes: Stir it into pasta and veggies to make this pasta a one-pot dinner then use it for Cheesy Beef Enchilada Casserole later in the week (see Associated Recipes). Or simply serve it over your favorite steamed vegetables for an easy side dish. If you'd rather make just enough sauce for this pasta, simply cut the sauce amounts in half.
• 6 of 13 6 of 13 More Cauliflower Mac & Cheese 5568559.jpg There's no pasta here, but this gluten-free and low-carb cauliflower "mac & cheese" is as comforting and creamy as your family's favorite cheesy dish.
• 7 of 13 7 of 13 More Pressure-Cooker Mac & Cheese Pressure-Cooker Mac & Cheese Make a healthier version of classic macaroni and cheese with this recipe that adds broccoli for a nutritional boost and an easy way to eat more vegetables. Using an electric pressure cooker, such as the InstantPot, gets dinner on the table in just 30 minutes.
• 8 of 13 8 of 13 More Quick Stovetop Mac & Cheese with Broccoli Rabe 4784509.jpg A swirl of prepared pesto gives this healthy mac and cheese recipe instant delicious flavor. If broccoli rabe is too bitter, try using broccolini or regular broccoli instead.
• 9 of 13 9 of 13 More Butternut Squash Chickpea Mac & Cheese Butternut Squash Chickpea Mac & Cheese This gluten-free butternut squash mac and cheese packs plenty of cheesy goodness in every bite. Chickpea pasta gets coated in a sauce made with pureed butternut squash that gives this comforting meal a nutrient boost and adds a sweet note to complement the savory flavors.
• 10 of 13 10 of 13 More 3-Ingredient Broccoli Mac & Cheese with Rotisserie Chicken 3-Ingredient Chicken-Broccoli Mac and Cheese Credit: Carolyn Hodges Transform a box of macaroni and cheese for an easy weeknight dinner. Use frozen broccoli, steamed in the microwave, to cut down on prep time. Opt for chickpea-based macaroni and cheese for a boost of protein and fiber.
• 11 of 13 11 of 13 More Quick Stovetop Mac & Cheese with Kohlrabi 4784512.jpg If you like cabbage or broccoli stems, you'll love the flavor kohlrabi gives to this healthy mac and cheese recipe. To make this vegetarian, skip the salami and top with toasted nuts or herbs.
• 12 of 13 12 of 13 More Quick Stovetop Mac & Cheese with Red Beets 4784506.jpg Red beets give this healthy mac and cheese recipe a pink hue. If that's a little too much for you, try using yellow beets instead.
• 13 of 13 13 of 13 More No-Bake Macaroni & Cheese 3756100.jpg Not only is this ultra-creamy version of mac-and-cheese nearly as fast as the boxed variety, but your family will be able to pronounce every ingredient. If they aren't broccoli fans, substitute a frozen vegetable of your choice.

By Maddy Sweitzer-Lamme December 20, 2021 Each product we feature has been independently selected and reviewed by our editorial team. If you make a purchase using the links included, we may earn commission. Advertisement Share In the kitchen cooking from tablet Credit: Eva-Katalin Cutting back on meat in your diet is an admirable goal. I know, because I've been trying to do it for a long time. We know that a plant-based diet is one of the biggest lifestyle changes you can make to cut back on your carbon footprint (not to mention, your grocery bill). But as a loyal meat lover, I realize how disheartening it can feel to think about letting go of some of your favorite dishes.  Going vegetarian, or even just picking one night a week to cook a meatless meal, doesn't have to be a practice in self-denial. Instead, the secret is in changing your sources of inspiration to make yourself excited about flavorful, delicious meals that just happen to be meatless. There's so much more to plant-based cooking beyond attempting to replace the animal proteins in your current go-to dishes with meatless substitutions.  The following cookbooks, all of which are vegetable-forward with a focus on plants and other protein sources, help me find inspiration when I'm trying to resist the ease of the chicken thigh. I know they'll help you do the same. Coconut and Sambal: Recipes From My Indonesian Kitchen by Lara Lee Coconut & Sambal cover Credit: Amazon This book is a great reminder that there are cuisines all around the world that use meat far less than the average American home cook. Lara focuses on Indonesia, where tempeh was created, and where meatless dishes dominate. There's a whole section on tofu and tempeh-based dishes, so this is a great book for someone who has perhaps dabbled in tofu cookery, but is looking for more ways to enjoy it. You'll learn to cook with lots of spices, plenty of crunchy peanuts, and loads of fragrant, warming sauces — like chili-garlic sambal. You'll also be inspired and transported by the gorgeous photography from all over Indonesia. Buy it: , $24; Amazon Six Seasons: A New Way With Vegetables by Joshua Mcfadden Six Seasons cover Credit: Amazon If you'd like to learn how to cook from the vegetables available to you at your farmer's market, this is the book to choose. McFadden splits the book into six sections, each named for a season (summer gets three parts). Within each chapter, the recipes are broken up by ingredient. For example, the winter chapter includes sections on cabbage, turnips, squash, and onions. He takes you through a handful of recipes for each, from raw to cooked, such as Pumpkin Bolognese, Onion and Pancetta Tart, and Cabbage, Onion and Farro Soup. The book is not specifically vegetarian; some recipes feature meat products in supporting roles, but they're rarely the centerpiece. Instead, the meat is there to bring out the nuanced flavors of the vegetables, which always helps me get excited about eating less meat. Buy it: , $21; Amazon Indian-ish: Recipes and Antics from a Modern American Family by Priya Krishna with Ritu Krishna Indian-ish cover Credit: Amazon This book is perfect if you're not super familiar with Indian cooking, but you're bored with your regular weeknight meals. Priya Krishna wrote this book with her mom, Ritu, who was a working mother and excellent weeknight cook. The recipes are inspired by their Indian background, but they feel distinctly American. For example, an Indian take on ribollita, in which the Tuscan kale and white bean stew is packed with flavor from a few spices, plus plenty of vegetables, and white-bean stuffed poblano peppers. I'm particularly fond of the feta cooked like saag paneer, which always gets me to eat more spinach than I thought possible in a single sitting. Priya grew up vegetarian, so while there are a few fish and in the book, it is heavily dominated by vegetarian dishes. Buy it: , $18; Amazon Zaitoun: Recipes from the Palestinian Kitchen by Yasmin Khan Zaitoun cover Credit: Amazon Zaitoun is filled with recipes for dishes that will feel familiar to anyone who likes Middle Eastern food. Staple ingredients include eggplant, feta, lentils, and rice. But the photography and simple cooking methods demonstrated throughout the book always leave me feeling inspired. A lentil, eggplant, and pomegranate stew is great for dinner on Sunday night, and reheats even better for lunch throughout the week. If you're craving meatballs, eggplant and feta kefte are held together with bulgur and offer a delicious and super-filling main dish alongside a kale salad or hefty portion of roasted vegetables. Khan makes Palestinian food feel super approachable, especially for someone who often cooks in an Italian or Mediterranean style, but who might be looking for ways to mix things up or get out of a cooking rut.
