Ingredients:

Serving

1 (8-oz.) package multigrain or whole wheat elbow macaroni
2 cups 2% reduced-fat milk
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp pepper
1/4 tsp salt
dash of ground red pepper
2 (8-oz.) blocks 2% reduced-fat sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
1 (10-oz.) package frozen spinach, thawed and drained
butter-flavored cooking spray
1/2 cup soft whole grain white breadcrumbs (about 1 oz.)

Directions:

Prepare macaroni according to package directions, omitting salt and butter; drain well.
Place milk and next 4 ingredients in a quart jar; cover tightly, and shake vigorously 1 minute. Stir together milk mixture, cheese, spinach, and macaroni.
Pour macaroni mixture into a 13- x 9-inch baking dish coated with butter-flavored cooking spray. Sprinkle evenly with breadcrumbs; lightly coat breadcrumbs with cooking spray.
Bake at 350° for 30 minutes or until golden brown.
Note: For testing purposes, we used Barilla Plus pasta and Sara Lee Soft & Smooth Whole Grain White Bread.
