Healthy Low Fat Pasta Recipes – Low-Fat Mac and Cheese

By Rebecca Garcia

Mac and Cheese is undoubtedly America's favorite comfort food but it is no way a low-fat dish.

Here’s a low-fat Mac and Cheese recipe that is just as good – if not better than – the old-fashioned version; your family will never guess you took out almost 10 grams of fat from it and your kids will love you for this! And, did I mention it’s super easy and quick?
