Dinner and a Breakfast

Sleep over took me before I posted last night, so let's post a bonus breakfast.

Dinner last night was Mac & Cheese. The sauce was different than what I usually do, in this case

I used:

1 can fat free evaporated milk

5 oz asiago cheese (shredded)

5 oz cheddar cheese (2% milk fat, shredded)

teaspoon of mustard

1 egg

caramelized onions

Preheat oven to 350* F

Slice one onion and caramelize in a pot. I usually spray the pan with some olive oil and sweat them out over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Boil up a box of pasta in a separate pot, drain.

When the onions are done, take them out and put aside. In the pot pour the evaporated milk and heat through (a couple of minutes). Take off heat and whisk in egg and mustard. Add cheese and stir until the cheese is melted. Add to pasta and stir until sauce thickens. Pour in a greased 9x9 baking dish, top with onions and bake about 15 minutes.

The sauce itself is 20 points. When poured over the pasta and split up, it ends up about 4 points a serving.

Now onto breakfast!

A few friends tell me to do "egg in a cup." It's easy in that it's an egg in a cup, scrambled with salt and pepper and then break up a wedge of laughing cow cheese and nuke for one minute. It makes a bit of a souffle. Because salt and pepper aren't enough, I also added a pinch of Herbs de Provence. I normally don't nuke eggs, it makes them too tough, but the creaminess of the cheese balances that out nicely for filling 3 point breakfast:

It's not the most beautiful of food, but it is filling and tasty. :)
