When I heard about “green mac” I was instantly intrigued. Green mac? No way. I had to come up with my own and I landed on creating this avocado mac and cheese recipe. I am a fan of finding ways to sneak veggies into foods that seem ‘unhealthy.’ (The dietitian in me can’t help it). If you love this mac and cheese check out this sweet potato mac and butternut squash mac recipe too. Or this pumpkin mac or no-boil mac with broccoli! In addition to the zucchini, avocado, and frozen spinach, I used nutritional yeast. Only 1/2 cup is used. It’s OK to splurge. After all, this is macaroni and CHEESE!
