One of the most requested Keto recipes is for Low Carb Mac & Cheese. Substituting Cauliflower for macaroni cuts the carbs and leaves room to create a delicious, rich and creamy cheese sauce. This easy to follow recipe has three types of cheeses to showcase the different textures and flavors of cheese. The ricotta has a subtle tanginess and adds body to the sauce. Parmesan has a sharp nutty flavor that’s perfect in cream sauces. Cheddar cheese is the ooey gooey cheesy goodness that makes Mac & cheese so crave worthy. When you combine all three with bacon and Ketologie Roast Chicken Bone Broth you’ve got a winning recipe. The roast chicken bone broth not only adds flavor but it also brings out the color of this creamy cheese sauce
Pro Tip* a common mistake when making cream based sauces is cooking to high. Adding cheese to boiling cream will separate the natural fats leaving you with a greasy grainy sauce. Bring the cream to a low simmer and whisk in the cheese slowly so that it melts gently into the cream creating a velvety smooth sauce
