Macaroni + Cheese w/Buffalo Crumb Topping makes 4 servings.

The ingredients for Macaroni + Cheese w/Buffalo Crumb Topping are:

8 oz whole wheat elbow macaroni
2 Tbsp country crock + calcium
2 Tbsp whole wheat flour
2 cups skim milk
3 Tbsp dry white white wine
1 1/2 tsp dijon mustard
1/2 tsp worcestershire sauce
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 slices reduced fat sargento pepper jack cheese
1 cup reduced fat sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
1 Tbsp dried parsley
2 Tbsp panko
14 buffalo wheat thins, crushed

Here is how you make Macaroni + Cheese w/Buffalo Crumb Topping:

Cook the elbow macaroni in a large pot of salted boiling water until barely tender. A little underdone is best because it will soften more while it bakes with the cheese sauce. Drain well and set aside. Preheat the oven to 350?F and coat a 2-1/2 quart oblong casserole dish with butter flavored cooking spray. Melt the margerine in a large saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture turns a light golden brown. Add the wine and whisk until smooth. Add the milk in a slow stream, whisking continually until blended. Add the mustard, worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper. Continue whisking until the mixture is smooth and velvety, 2 to 3 minutes. Reduce the heat to low, add the cheeses and stir until the cheese has melted and the mixture is thick and creamy. Add the cooked macaroni and parsley. Mix well and transfer to the prepared casserole dish. Combine the panko and wheat thin crumbs and sprinkle the mixture evenly over the top of the casserole. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes. Uncover and return to the oven for an additional 10 to 12 minutes, or until the crumb topping begins to brown. Allow the casserole to stand for 5 minutes before serving.Serving Size: 4Number of Servings: 4Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user SLJGEMINI75.
