Crab Macaroni Casserole

From Taste of Home



Ingredients:
2 cups uncooked whole wheat elbow macaroni
3 tablespoons chopped onion
2 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1-1/2 cups fat-free milk
2 cans (6 ounces each) lump crabmeat, drained
1 cup (8 ounces) reduced-fat sour cream
1/2 cup shredded Swiss cheese
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground mustard
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded fat-free cheddar cheese, divided

Directions:
Cook macaroni according to package directions.

Meanwhile, in a large skillet, saute onion in butter until tender. Combine flour and milk until smooth; stir into pan. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from the heat. Drain macaroni. Add the crabmeat, sour cream, Swiss cheese, salt, mustard, macaroni and 1/4 cup cheddar cheese to the skillet.

Transfer to an 11-in. x 7-in. baking dish coated with cooking spray. Sprinkle with remaining cheddar cheese. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 20-25 minutes or until heated through.

Comments:
This was pretty easy to make and while I admit it did smell kind of good, I didn't have any because of the crab. We'll see how it treats Adam's digestive system. The butter/flour/milk-based sauces seem to do a number on him sometimes...
