Sweet Potato and Brie Mac & Cheese
- 8 ounces, weight Uncooked Macaroni Or Other Pasta, Preferably Whole Wheat Or Blend
- 1 cup Sweet Potato Puree
- 1 cup 1% Low-fat Milk
- 1 cup Freshly Grated Reduced Fat Sharp Cheddar Cheese
- 4 Tablespoons Neufchatel Cream Cheese
- 1/2 cups Double Cream Brie Cheese, Rind Removed And Cut Into Cubes
- 18 teaspoons Ground Nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoons Kosher Salt, Or To Taste
- 1/4 teaspoons Freshly Ground Black Pepper, Or To Taste
- Cook pasta according to package directions (I actually prefer to cook my pasta a minute or two less than the lowest cooking time on the package for al dente pasta); drain.
- Meanwhile, whisk together and heat sweet potato puree and milk in a medium saucepan over medium heat until just starting to simmer.
- Reduce stove heat to low.
- Whisk in cheeses until fully melted.
- Stir in nutmeg.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Stir drained pasta into the sweet potato-cheese sauce and mix until thoroughly combined.
- At this point, the mac and cheese might appear a bit soupy.
- If this is the case, let the mixture sit off the heat for a few minutes.
- The cheese sauce will firm up as it slightly cools.
- Serve with an extra dusting of nutmeg, if desired.
