Here's a kid-approved twist on mac and cheese, and young chefs get to help out! When kids help, they get to feel all grown up (plus they're much more likely to try new flavours). Work together to cut some veggies, make an easy, cheesy sauce boosted with turkey and broccoli, and have fun making a meal you both love.

Protein Plus (50 g protein or more) is based on a per serving calculation of the recipe's protein amount.

👩‍🍳 Young Chef Tips: 🥦 Let kids help "hide" the broccoli by stirring it into the sauce. 🧀 Have kids sprinkle in the cheese and watch it melt. 🍝 Let young chefs stir the cooked pasta into the cheesy sauce.

Cooking Steps

Before starting, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil (use same for 4 servings). Wash and dry all produce.
Young Chef: Use a kid-friendly knife to cut broccoli into bite-sized pieces.

To the boiling water, add pasta. Cook uncovered for 7 min, stirring occasionally.
Add broccoli.
Cook for 3-4 min, until pasta and broccoli are tender.
Reserve 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) pasta water, then drain and return pasta and broccoli to the same pot, off heat.

Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high. When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then turkey. Cook for 4-5 min, breaking up turkey into smaller pieces, until no pink remains.**
Season with salt and pepper.
Remove the pan from heat.

Young Chef: Sprinkle flour over turkey, then stir to coat.
Young Chef: Add 1 cup (2 cups) milk to the pan.
Return the pan to medium heat and whisk until combined. Whisk in half the Smoked Paprika-Garlic Blend. Cook 1-2 min, whisking often, until sauce thickens slightly.
