Greek Mac and Cheese As we get closer to Fall, mornings and nights get cooler, I start craving more comfort food dishes. No sauce to make, and tastes like a classic Greek spinach and feta pie!

Fat-free Greek yogurt and low-fat cream cheese gives the sauce a very creamy and flavorful base–without all the fat found in heavy cream–and shredded cheeses add lots of intense flavor.
Steps to make Creamy Greek Mac & cheese:
- Preheat oven to 400°F
- In large pot boil water with kosher salt (2 tsp) and cook pasta to al dente. Drain and rinse when complete with cold water.
- Using the same large pot with heat off, melt room temperature butter, add flour slowly whisk thoroughly while turning stove low->medium
- Small pot on medium, heat up the milk (3-4 minutes do not burn!)
- Add cup by cup the heated milk to the whisked butter-flour mixture. It will become much thicker just keep whisking and add milk accordingly
- Add the minced shallots, the 3 types of cheese, and drained chopped artichoke hearts & spinach. Keep stirring and add pasta.
- Fold the pasta in and then put in oven safe bowl.

Fresh spinach and salty prosciutto perfectly complement the dish! This is my Greek style mac and cheese. I used feta and creamy havarti with dill to make the cheese sauce. I got the havarti with dill in the deli section of my supermarket, and just asked them to cut my a half pound slice so I could shred it. I also added some good pitted kalamata olives, a few capers, a bit of.
