• What makes Cabot cheeses naturally lactose-free? To start, it’s important to know that lactose is simply the natural sugar found in milk. To understand how cheese becomes lactose-free, first look to the cheesemaking process. T o begin, curd is separated from whey (whey is where most of the lactose is). The curd eventually becomes cheese and the whey is removed (and along with it goes most of.

This lactose-free mac and cheese recipe is fun and simple to make, and all it requires is eight ounces of uncooked small elbow macaroni, rigatoni or penne pasta, a single cup of reduced-fat, lactose-free milk, cornstarch and cheddar cheese.

This recipe for lactose-free mac n' cheese is one of my favorites because it is all natural and totally safe for lactose intolerants to enjoy. Not only is the cheese lactose-free, but it tastes exactly like regular cheddar cheese. This is because it is, Cabot cheese makes all of their cheeses naturally lactose-free using an enzyme process.

This means that this particular brand of lactose-free cheese is made with real milk and tastes exactly like regular cheese. I use it as my main ingredient in the recipe below in order to make super cheesy mac n' cheese minus the lactose.

Ingredients

• 1/2 box Barilla protein pasta
• 1/2 block Cabot extra sharp yellow cheddar cheese
• 1 tablespoon Lactaid milk

• Step 1

  Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Add the pasta to it and stir for 10 minutes until cooked well.

• Step 2

  Strain the pasta until it's dry and then return to the same saucepan. Grate the half block of cheese and add to the pan.

• Step 3

  Turn up the heat again and stir in the milk until all the pasta is coated. Cool for 5 minutes before serving.

I use the Cabot yellow sharp cheddar cheese for this recipe because it has so much flavor to it. This way I don't have to make the recipe super creamy and unhealthy because the cheese does all the work. It is tart, and with a little bit of Lactaid milk, each piece of penne pasta is lightly coated with that delicious yet lactose-free mac n' cheese flavor.

Also, Barilla's protein penne pasta is perfect for this recipe because it is really filling. When eating something like mac n' cheese, there isn't a lot of protein to fill my stomach up. This tends to mean that I eat more carbs to feel just as full as I would if I ate fewer carbs and more protein. This makes eating mac n' cheese seem unhealthy because there isn't a lot of beneficial nutrition.

However, by using protein pasta and avoiding things like butter and heavy cream, this mac n' cheese recipe is a lot healthier. It will stick with you longer, make you eat fewer carbs, and taste amazing, even though it's totally lactose-free.

There’s no better homemade comfort food than macaroni and cheese. Simple to make and a crowd pleaser for pickier palates, it tends to be a staple in most family homes. Yet sometimes that cheesy, melty dinner can turn tiny tummies (or even yours!) into an uncomfortable knot.

At Kreider Farms, we understand how difficult it can be cooking for the whole family if one or more of you are lactose intolerant. Finding foods that work for everyone can be not only frustrating, but time-consuming and expensive as well. That’s why we went on a search for one of the best lactose free mac and cheese recipes we could find. Not only does this recipe hit that comfort food spot, but it also packs just as much (if not more) flavor than typical mac and cheese.

What Cheeses are Naturally Lactose Free?

Before we get to the recipe, we wanted to talk about the star of the show—the cheese! For instance, did you know that you can actually make your own lactose free cheese right at home? Mozzarella and ricotta are a few of the easier ones to make, but you can even buy certain premade cheeses from the store that are low in lactose, too. Aged cheeses typically have less sugar in them, making them easier for lactose intolerant stomachs to digest. A few popular types are sharp cheddar, mild cheddar, Muenster, brie, provolone, Gouda, blue, parmesan, and Swiss.

As with all cheeses or foods in general, make sure you know your limits. If you’ve never eaten a specific type of cheese (even if it’s a lactose free cheese), try it in smaller portions to see how your stomach reacts before you eat an entire meal. Everyone reacts differently and has different tolerance levels, so do what’s best for your body!

First and foremost, if you have a tried and true family recipe for mac and cheese, we suggest modifying that one first by using Kreider’s Lactose Free Milk and possibly substituting certain cheeses. But this Rachael Ray recipe is one of our absolute favorites and should go nice and easy on lactose intolerant stomachs (we’ve tweaked it slightly to be more lactose intolerant friendly).

Ingredients

Here are the ingredients you’ll need to get started with this recipe:

Lactose Free Mac And Cheese

• 1 Tbsp. Vegetable or Olive Oil
• 2 Tbsp. Margarine*
• 3 Tbsp. Flour
• 1 ½ cups Lactose Free Milk
• 3 cups Shredded White Cheddar Cheese**
• ½ tsp. Nutmeg, Ground Or Freshly Grated
• ¼ tsp. Ground Cayenne Pepper
• 1 Lb. Elbow Macaroni (Cooked 8 Minutes or to Al Dente)
• Salt

*Make sure you check your margarine label to make sure it doesn’t contain milk solids or milk product.

**Cheddar cheese is naturally low in lactose, but make sure you know your stomach’s limits before eating a lot of it.

Instructions

The first step to this macaroni and cheese is make a roux for your cheese sauce. Start by heating up a deep, medium-sized skillet over medium heat and add in your oil and margarine to the pan. When the margarine melts, slowly add in your flour. Whisk together until smooth for about 3 minutes until the flour has had a chance to cook. While continuing to whisk, slowly add in your lactose free milk and stir it frequently until the milk starts to bubble.

Once it has thickened slightly, add in 2 of the 3 cups of your shredded cheese a handful at a time. Once the cheese is incorporated, season your sauce with nutmeg, pepper, and salt to taste. Add in the cooked pasta and coat the noodles completely by folding them into the sauce. Transfer the macaroni and cheese to a baking dish and sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of choose across the top. Place the baking dish into the oven and broil until the cheese is brown on top.
