Print Recipe
Ingredients
16 ounces, weight White Button Or Cremini Mushrooms, Quartered
Olive Oil, For Drizzling
Kosher Salt And Black Pepper To Taste
8 slices Thick Cut Bacon
2 whole Yellow Onions, Peeled, Halved, And Thinly Sliced
5 Tablespoons Butter, Plus More For Buttering The Pan
1/2 cup Grated Parmesan Cheese
1/2 cup Grated Gruyere Cheese
1/2 cup Grated Fontina Cheese
4 ounces, weight Goat Cheese (chevre)
1-1/2 pound Macaroni
1/4 cup All-purpose Flour
2 cups Whole Milk
1/2 cup Half-and-half
2 whole Eggs, Beaten
4 ounces, weight Crumbled Gorgonzola Or Other Blue Cheese
Preparation Instructions
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Drizzle the mushrooms with olive oil, then sprinkle them with salt and pepper. Roast them in the oven until deep golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Set aside.
Next, fry the bacon until chewy but not yet crisp. Chop the bacon into bite-size bits and set aside.
In a large skillet over medium-low heat, saute the onions in 1 tablespoon butter, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, about 15 minutes. Set aside.
Grate the Parmesan, Gruyere, and fontina cheeses. Unwrap the goat cheese.
Cook the macaroni until just undercooked. Drain and set aside.
To make the sauce, melt the remaining 4 tablespoons butter in a large pot over medium heat. Sprinkle in the flour, whisking to combine. Let the roux cook for a minute or so, whisking constantly. Pour in the milk, whisking constantly, then cook the white sauce for 3 to 5 minutes, or until thick and bubbly.
Next, add the half and half, 1 teaspoon of salt, plenty of black pepper, and stir to combine.
Spoon about 1/4 cup of the hot white sauce into a small bowl containing the beaten egg, stirring the egg with a fork as you drizzle it in. Once combined, pour the mixture into the pot with the white sauce, stirring constantly. Add all the cheese in and stir them around to melt.
Add the cooked macaroni and stir to coat. Splash in a little milk or hot water as needed for thinning.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9 x 13 inch baking pan generously.
Lay half the cooked onions in the bottom of the pan, followed by half the macaroni, half the roasted mushrooms, half the Gorgonzola, and half the bacon. Repeat the layers, ending with the bacon. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until bubbly and hot. Delicious!

I’m not a fan of mushrooms. Do you have a suggestion for a substitution? Yes, I know I can leave them out! =] Thanks!

This looks great except for all the cheeses. My family only likes cheddar out of everything you listed. Maybe we’ll add some jack. They know when “weird” cheeses are added.

My daughter and I love your show! This mac n cheese sure is different having onions and all. Will try. Can’t go wrong with bacon, baby portobello mushrooms, Fontina and Gruyere cheeses. Yum! (not sure if the blue cheese would go over w/ the others, but it sounds creamy and dreamy!)

I’d leave out the bacon, since I don’t eat it (sorry! I know most of you love bacon!), but other than that, it sounds incredible. Definitely not for those who are even mildly lactose-intolerant (although it could be worth it).Yum!

Mmm, this looks great. I love that you used Gruyere and Fontina. And ‘shrooms! What a great looking plate of mac ‘ n cheese!
And on another note, I keep seeing so many people blogging about your chocolate sheet cakes the past few days. It’s a sign I need to make it!

If you want to cook...you have to do the dishes. I keep trying to find a way around this, but haven't had much luck.

Broccoli Cheese Soup
Broccoli Cheese Soup
2 cups diced potatoes (scrubbed, not peeled)
1 small onion, diced
1 cup sliced carrots (also scrubbed, not peeled
1 cup chopped celery
1/2 cup chopped broccoli
(I chop the stem and add it with the other vegetables. I save small pieces of the flowerets until everything else is done, turn off the heat, add the broccoli. Put the lid back on and let it steam for a few minutes, then stir it in as you stir in the other mixture.)
In a large soup pan combine the vegetables, add 3 bullion cubes and enough water to barely cover; simmer until the vegetables are done - 15-20 min.
Meantime, make a white sauce of
1/2 cup butter
1 1/2 tbsp. flour
1 cup milk
1 tsp. dry mustard
1 tsp. pepper
Melt the butter, add the flour, mustard and pepper stirring to make a paste. Add milk and stir until mixture is thickened.
Dice 1 lb of Velveeta cheese and add to white sauce. (Most packages of Velveeta are 2 pounds...)
Combine cheese sauce and vegetables, don't bring to a boil or mixture will curdle. Serves 8.
(I usually add a few more vegetables than it calls for...)

Egg Noodles
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 pinch salt
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup milk
1 tablespoon butter
Mix salt, eggs, milk, and butter. Add flour. Knead for 5 minutes, until very elastic. Let sit for 5 minutes. Roll out thinly on floured table. Use a pizza cutter to cut noodles as narrowly as possible (about 1/8 inch wide). Hang noodles for about an hour (a plastic coat hanger works great). Bring a pot of water to boiling. Once at a rolling boil, add noodles and cook for 3 minutes.
