Easy Mac ‘n’ Cheese

This mac ‘n’ cheese is SO good! I used it as a side dish to go with the Ranch-Parmesan Chicken but it would also be something really yummy to bring to a potluck or picnic!

12 oz. elbow macaroni
2 T. Dijon mustard
1-1/4 c (10 oz) sour cream
Kosher salt & pepper
1 small onion, finely chopped
8 oz extra-sharp cheddar, grated (about 2 cups)

1. Heat oven to 400F/200C. Cook the pasta for half the time recommended on package directions;drain.
2. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together the mustard, 1 cup of the sour cream, and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Fold in the onion and 1 cup of the cheddar.
3. Add the pasta to the bowl and toss to coat. Transfer the pasta mixture to a shallow 3-qt or 9×13-in. baking dish and bake until beginning to brown, 15-20 minutes.
4. Remove the baking dish from the oven and fold in the remaining cup of cheddar and 1/4 cup sour cream. Return to the oven and bake until golden brown, 15-20 minutes more. Serve with freshly cracked pepper.
