Kale and Spinach Mac & Cheese Cups

INGREDIENTS 

(makes 6 cups of pasta with cheese)

Annies Shells & Real Aged Cheddar (1/3 cup per cup)

6 glasses of water

3 tablespoons of milk

2 tablespoons unsalted butter (optional)

1/2 cup chopped cabbage and spinach

coconut oil spray (or other cooking spray)

grated cheddar cheese (1/2 tablespoon per cup)

breadcrumbs (1/8 teaspoon per cup)

DIRECTIONS


Step 1: Go to Sprouts and buy your ingredients, including other Box Tops products! I love that Sprouts has so many Box Tops members right now, including some of our favorite Annies snacks!

Step 2: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Make Annies Shells & Real Aged Cheddar according to the package. Boil 6 cups of water, add pasta and cook for 8-10 minutes. Drain the pasta and mix in 3 tablespoons of milk, 2 tablespoons of butter (optional) and a bag of cheese. Combine chopped cabbage and spinach in 1/2 cup.

Step 3: Spray a baking sheet with a spray of coconut oil (or another spray). Add 1/3 cup of mac & cheese to each of the 6 cups. You will have a little more that turned into my baby’s lunch. In each cup, add 1/2 tablespoon of grated cheddar cheese and 1/8 teaspoon of breadcrumbs.

Step 4: Bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes. Allow to cool completely before taking out cups with poppy seeds and cheese. Enjoy at home or pack in your lunch box! Today's bento dinner for my kindergarten consisted of a cup of pasta with Ennis cheese, tortilla “Food should be delicious” - sweet potatoes, carrots, Granola bar on Cascade Farm, cucumbers and Annie Graham honey crackers. Mostly Box Tops products!
