16 oz pasta – elbow, shells, or cavatappi work best
1 tbsp unsalted butter
1 1/2 tbsp all-purpose flour
1 cup low-fat milk (240g)
1 cup chicken bone broth (240g)
1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (113g)
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese (112g)
1/2 cup part-skim mozzarella cheese (56g)
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese (28g)
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp ground mustard powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp smoked paprika
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
Combine milk and broth in a bowl or measuring cup; set aside.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the pasta to al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a large saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Whisk in flour and cook 1–2 minutes until lightly golden. Gradually whisk in the milk-broth mixture until smooth and cook until slightly thickened, about 4–5 minutes.
Reduce heat to low. Stir in Greek yogurt, Dijon, and seasonings until smooth.
Add the cheeses a handful at a time, stirring gently until melted and creamy.
Add the pasta and stir to coat evenly. Let sit for 1–2 minutes so the sauce thickens and clings to the pasta.
Optional: Transfer to a baking dish, top with a little extra cheddar or parmesan, and broil for 2–3 minutes until golden and bubbly.
Finish with additional salt and pepper to taste and serve immediately.
