Indulge in the ultimate cheesy comfort with our French Onion Mac & Cheese! Featuring the rich flavors of Cuisine Adventures French Onion Soup, buttery Cavatappi pasta, and a luscious blend of Swiss or Gruyere cheese, this dish offers a deliciously unique take on the classic mac and cheese.
Ingredients
- 2 packets of Cuisine Adventures French Onion Soup
- 500 ml water
- 750 ml uncooked Cavatappi noodles (or any short pasta)
- 30 ml unsalted butter
- 340 g shredded Swiss cheese (or Gruyere, or your choice of cheese)
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a 12-inch skillet with a lid, place the frozen French Onion Soup packets and add 500 ml of water. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat.
- Once boiling, add the pasta to the skillet. Cover and cook according to the package instructions, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
- When the pasta is cooked to your liking, remove the skillet from heat. Stir in the unsalted butter until fully melted and incorporated. Gradually add the shredded cheese in 2 to 3 batches, stirring after each addition until most of the cheese is melted (about 2 minutes). Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
- Grease an 8×8-inch baking dish with butter and transfer the macaroni and cheese mixture into the dish, spreading it evenly.
- Sprinkle the remaining 113 g of cheese on top. Bake for 15 minutes or until the top is golden brown and bubbly.
Serve warm and enjoy!
