Baked Crab Mac 'n Cheese
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

  2. Bring saucepan of water to a boil. Cook macaroni for approximately 2 minutes less than the directions on the box; drain and set aside.

  3. Meanwhile, put cauliflower in a microwave safe bowl that can be covered and microwave until lightly steamed, 2-3 minutes. Drain any excess liquid and finely chop.

  4. In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese and olive oil.

  5. In a large saucepan, whisk the milk and flour together until the flour is dissolved. Whisking constantly, bring to a gentle boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until mixture thickens slightly, 3-4 minutes.

  6. Stir in the cheddar, gruyere, mustard powder, paprika, ½ teaspoon each salt and pepper, and cayenne. Whisk until the cheeses are melted and mixture is smooth, 1-2 minutes.

  7. Add the macaroni and cauliflower and stir until well coated. Stir in crab.

  8. Spray a 2 quart casserole dish with cooking spray and pour mixture into skillet. Sprinkle with the breadcrumb mixture, bake until top is browned and the cheese is bubbly, about 30 minutes.
