Servings: 1

 

Ingredients:

3/4 cup breadcrumbs

3 egg whites

Dash of hot sauce

1 batch carrot macaroni and cheese *

Salt and pepper

Equipment:

baking paper

oven

baking sheet

bowl

whisk

Cooking instruction summary:

When macaroni and cheese is cool enough to handle, shape into 12 balls (size of a large egg) and place in an airtight container. If you need to stack them on top of each other, place parchment paper in between. Place in the fridge and let refrigerate overnight. This helps the macaroni and cheese to thicken up and stay together during baking. You could probably get away with 2-3 hours in the fridge, but overnight is ideal.When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Place a baking sheet into the oven while it is preheating.Place the breadcrumbs in a shallow bowl. Whisk together the egg whites, salt, pepper, and hot sauce in another bowl. Dip each mac and cheese ball into the egg whites and then roll in the breadcrumbs.Pull the baking sheet out of the oven and spray with cooking spray. Place the mac and cheese balls in a single layer and bake for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through.
