Healthy Broccoli Mac & Cheese (gluten-free)

Healthy Broccoli Mac & Cheese made with all gluten-free ingredients. The easiest homemade mac & cheese that sneaks in some veggies too for the whole family to enjoy.

After sharing that insanely delicious easiest healthy mac & cheese a few months ago, I have been dabbling with another version with some extra veggies in it for us.

This Healthy Broccoli Mac & Cheese is absolutely insane. It is one of those comfort foods you will crave over and over again and it really easy and simple to make. With a recipe like this around, you won’t be looking to boxed mac & cheese anymore. Just store the key ingredients needed to whip this up, and you’ll have dinner ready in 15 minutes.

I love that this Broccoli Mac & Cheese is also gluten-free and made with 5 key ingredients.

I always switch things up with my gluten-free pastas that I use. Sometimes it is a veggie or bean-based pasta. other times it is a rice based one. I like to diversify the noodles as much as possible to make sure Ez also gets a variety of foods in his diet. I do also used sprouted noodles with gluten it too. Really anything works!

Now let’s run through what ingredients are needed to make this healthy cheesy pasta..

• Gluten-free pasta – any noodle, any kind, just use your favorite one! I used these
• Cooked broccoli – you can also use peas or anything veggie if you have a preference. I love using broccoli the most to sneak this veggie in, but do what works for you
• Organic shredded cheddar cheese – use a dairy-free one if you need!
• Nutritional yeast – adds that extra cheesy flavor too
• Non-dairy milk – any kind you want! Plain/unsweetened preferred so it isn’t adding sweetness. It is meant for creaminess.
