New yummies!

On a recent trip to the Pacific Northwest I came into the possession of some really yummy recipes courtesy of my daughter-in-law.  Tonight's offering was a new twist on Mac and Cheese.

Aelpler Magrona

2 quarts of water
1 1/2 tbs salt
4 c potatoes (cubed 3/4" thick)
1 1/2 c elbow macaroni
1 med onion (chopped)
1/2 c butter
1 lb finely grated cheese (Gruyere or Emmthaler or a mixture)
1 pint of heavy cream

In a large pot bring the water with the salt to a boil. Add potatoes and bring to a boil. Simmer for four minutes. Add pasta and cook until tender.  Drain in a colander.  Brown the chopped onions in the butter  until caramelized.  Layer the potato/pasta with the cheese and onions.  Top with the heavy cream. Bake at 350 for about 25 minutes.
