Cold winter evenings are much more tolerable with this comforting casserole. Whole wheat macaroni boosts nutrition, while the melted cheese topping makes it rich and so satisfying. We like it best with a veggie side. âJason Egner, Edgerton, Wisconsin Ingredients:
2 cups uncooked whole wheat elbow macaroni |
3 tablespoons chopped onion |
2 tablespoons butter |
3 tablespoons king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1-1/2 cups fat-free milk |
2 cans (6 ounces each) lump crabmeat, drained |
1 cup (8 ounces) reduced-fat sour cream |
1/2 cup shredded swiss cheese |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon ground mustard |
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded fat-free cheddar cheese, divided |
Directions:
1. Cook macaroni according to package directions.
2. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, saute onion in butter until tender. Combine flour and milk until smooth; stir into pan. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until thickened.
