Do you love Mac 'n Cheese but hate all the fat and calories? Below are three reduced calorie versions of this favorite comfort food. Oh, and did I mention these recipes sound absolutely delicious?!
1) Green Chile Mac 'n Cheese
This recipe from hungry-girl uses cauliflower in place of some of the macaroni. (Why Is Cauliflower So Good For You?) Plus it includes onions and jalapeno slices which I love! You can find the recipe here:

2) Lighter Baked Macaroni and Cheese
This recipe from skinnytaste.com includes onions and spinach. It also suggests adding some mushrooms which sounds like a brilliant idea to me. Just looking at the picture makes me hungry! Find the recipe here:

3) Skillet Mac & Cheese
