- 1/2 cup Egg Beaters egg substitute (r)

Method
- I like to use the healthy choice or smart balance cheeses. Use Tabasco to taste of course--my husband likes it spicy!
- Preheat oven to 375°F and spray a 9x13 or 3-quart baking dish with nonstick spray oil.
- Cook macaroni according to package directions.
- In a food processor or blender, mix ricotta cheese, milk, egg substitute, mustard, Tabasco sauce, salt and pepper.
- Process until smooth.
- Drain macaroni, return to pot and add shredded cheddar. Stir until cheese melts. Stir in ricotta mixture and scrape into prepared baking dish.
- In a small bowl, combine Parmesan cheese, bread crumbs, and paprika. Sprinkle evenly over macaroni and cheese.
- Bake at 375°F for 25 minutes. Serve hot.
