Easy Mac N Cheese

Ingredients:
12 oz. elbow macaroni
2 Tbsp. Dijon mustard
1 1/4 c. sour cream
Kosher salt and pepper
1 small onion, finely chopped
8 oz. extra-sharp cheddar cheese, grated (2 c.)

Directions:
Heat oven to 400 degrees.  Cook the pasta for half of the time recommended on package directions; drain.

Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together the mustard, 1 c. sour cream and 1/2 tsp. each salt and pepper.  Fold in onion and 1 c. cheese.

Add the pasta to the bowl and toss to coat.  Transfer the pasta mixture to a shallow 3 qt. or 9x13 baking dish and bake until beginning to brown, 15-20 minutes.

Remove the baking dish from the oven and fold in the remaining 1 c. cheese and 1/4 c. sour cream.  Return to the oven and bake until golden brown, 15-20 minutes more.  Serve with freshly cracked black pepper.
