ingredients

1 lb pasta (we prefer mostaccioli or ziti)
¹⁄₂ cup chopped onion
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons flour
¹⁄₈ teaspoon black pepper
2 ¹⁄₂ cups milk
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded American cheese (we just tear up singles)
1 cup shredded monterey jack pepper cheese

directions

Cook pasta and drain.
Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, sautee the onions in the butter until they're soft (not brown). Stir in flour, pepper, and milk.
Cook and stir over medium heat until slightly thickened and bubbly.
Add cheeses a little at a time, stirring until melted and smooth. (At this point you can taste and add more of whichever flavor of cheese is lacking.
For less bite, add more American cheese.)
Salt to taste.
Pour over pasta and stir. Transfer to a 2-quart casserole dish.
Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees for 25 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before eating.
