We love mac AND protein. That’s why we made a new mac & cheese that brings together wheat & chickpeas for the best of both worlds: classic taste and a boost of protein. Creamy and deliciously cheesy, this mac & cheese is perfect for the whole family.
The texture holds up perfectly even when I reheat leftovers the next day, which is rare for a protein pasta. My kids couldn't tell the difference between this and the regular boxed stuff, and I'm happy they're getting that extra chickpea protein boost without a chalky aftertaste.
I was honestly skeptical about protein mac and cheese, but the chickpea blend makes the shells heartier without losing that creamy white cheddar flavor. Cooked up in about 10 minutes and my kids didn't even notice the switch, which is the real win here.
