Vegaphobes won’t know that this mac and cheese harbors a can of carrots. Shhh. The casserole has three recipe variations for adventurous eaters – Pasta Florentine adds some garlic, spinach and Parmesan cheese; there’s a hint of spicy brown mustard in the Ham and Cheese variation; and Shrimp Parmesan is enhanced with a can of baby shrimp and the scent of extra-virgin olive oil. This recipe is part of 1 recipe 4 ways. It includes the Tasty Mixed-Up Mac and Cheese recipe.
Ingredients:
1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
1/2 cup drained canned, unsalted, chopped spinach
3 cups hot mac and cheese (from tasty mixed-up mac and cheese recipe)
2 tablespoons finely shredded imported parmesan cheese
Directions:
1. Heat the olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook until aromatic, about 10 seconds. Add the spinach and heat through, 2 to 3 minutes.
2. Stir into 2 portions, or approximately 3 cups, of hot mac and cheese along with the Parmesan cheese and serve.
