How do you make Mac and Cheese more healthy? Check out this post to find out.

I’ve been trying to hit the gym at least three times per week, so it’s essential to cook my meals ahead of time. One of my favorite things to make are baked pasta dishes because you can make many portions at once and it usually tastes better after a day or two in the fridge.

One of my comfort food favorites is macaroni and cheese, and my favorite healthier version of macaroni and cheese is from Men’s Health “Cook This Not That.”

Their recipe, which you can grab by clicking the link above, uses a lighter bechamel sauce instead of lots of butter and heavy cream to thicken things up.
