BLE: 'Mac' and Cheese for lunch

I need to write this down, because R will post on her Instagram and someone will ask for the recipe.

For this to be BLE compliant, reduce the fat of another meal that day by 1/3 or skip the bacon fat.

• 2 strips bacon
• 1/2 Orange Bell Pepper
• 1/2 Yellow Onion
• 30oz can of While Hominy
• 3T ground flaxmeal
• 3T water
• 3/4C milk
• 1.75oz jack and\or cheddar
• 1.75oz topping cheese (blend of parmesan, romano, and asagio from TJ's)

Season to taste as you go, I forgot and had to add salt & pepper to finish.

Cook bacon, reserving 1T of fat. (one of the kids will gobble this up)

Dice and sauté in the bacon fat half the pepper and onion until onion is translucent. 

While that's cooking, open, rinse, and drain one 30oz can of white hominy. Add to onion mixture and continue sautéing until hominy is heated through and some is turning golden. 

In the meantime, in three baking dishes (we used ceramic bowls) combine in each 1/4C milk, 1T water, and 1T ground flax meal. Whisk together each bowl until combined, then weigh in an ounce of shredded cheese, stir and let sit. This is your fat and 3/4 protein.

Once veggies are ready, weigh 6oz into each bowl and stir to thoroughly combine. I ended up with 6.2 veg in the third bowl. Top each bowl with the remaining half ounce of cheese, tap a sprinkle of ground red chili on top, and bake in a 350 degree oven for 25 minutes.

Creamy and very filling; I'll make this again. I used bacon fat because that is how we use to make hominy for breakfast; frying it in the left over bacon fat. But I don't think it was necessary and will omit it next time.

And I need to double check the cheese, I think I have the weights wrong? Each bowl should end up with 1/4 protein from milk and 1 3/4 protein from cheese.
