Weight Watchers Butternut Squash Macaroni and Cheese Recipe. A delicious Fall comfort food dinner. This one pot meal is quick and easy to make, and is ready in just 25 minutes.
In a Dutch oven, add milk, salt, elbow macaroni, mustard, nutmeg, onion powder, and water.
Place Dutch oven over medium/high heat.
Stir continually, and cook approximately 3 minutes, or until it just starts to boil (small bubbles), but don't allow it to boil.
Reduce heat to low/medium.
Stir often, and cook approximately 13 - 15 minutes, or until the macaroni is firm to the bite, and the sauce has thickened.
Add butternut squash and stir to mix for 1 minute.
Reduce heat to low.
Take Dutch oven off of heat.
Add a little reduced-fat shredded cheddar cheese and stir in until melted. Repeat, a little at a time, until all of the cheese has been added and melted.
To serve, garnish with chopped chives.
