Macaroni and Cheese with Kale image

Give classic mac and cheese a healthy makeover with the addition of sauteed kale.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 1h5m

Yield 8-12

Number Of Ingredients 12

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound elbow macaroni
1/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 large bunch of kale, stems discarded, leaves roughly chopped (about 8 cups)
4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 1/2 cups half-and-half
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
Two 8-ounce packages cream cheese, at room temperature
One 8-ounce block sharp Cheddar, grated
1 cup grated Havarti cheese
1 cup panko bread crumbs

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook as the label directs for al dente. Reserve 1 3/4 cups of the cooking water and then drain. Set aside.
  • Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the kale and garlic and cook, stirring, until the kale begins to wilt. Add 1/2 cup of water, 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the kale wilts and is crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
  • Carefully wipe out the saucepan. Bring the half-and-half, cayenne and nutmeg to a simmer over medium heat. Cook until reduced to 1 1/2 cups, about 15 minutes. Add the cream cheese and stir until melted. Gradually whisk in the Cheddar and Havarti cheeses, a handful at a time, until all the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth.
  • Add the cooked pasta and reserved cooking water to the sauce and stir to combine. Stir in the kale and season with additional salt and pepper. Pour into a 13-by-9-inch baking dish. Toss the bread crumbs, remaining 1/4 cup olive oil and a large pinch of salt and pepper in a medium bowl and sprinkle evenly over the macaroni and cheese. Bake until bubbly and lightly browned, about 10 minutes.
