Pasta in Brie Sauce

INGREDIENTS
½   pound small to medium shell pasta
4    tablespoons butter
1    medium white onion, halved and thinly sliced
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1    cup low fat milk
4    ounces Brie cheese, cut into small pieces
¼   cup bread crumbs

METHOD

Preheat oven to 350 F. Lightly grease a 2 quart baking dish. Cook the pasta until it is partially cooked (2/3 the package direction time), rinse in cold water and set aside.

In a large skillet, heat the butter over medium heat and add the onions. Cook for 5 to 6 minutes until they are translucent but not browned. Remove from the skillet and set aside. Add the flour to the butter in the skillet and cook, stirring, until combined and pasty. Add the milk and continue to stir and cook until smooth. Lower the heat to medium-low and add the cheese. Stir and cook until well melted and combined.

Add the reserved onions and the pasta to the skillet and thoroughly mix. Pour into the prepared baking dish and sprinkle with the bread crumbs. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until the crumbs are golden brown. Remove from the oven and allow the casserole to cool for 5 to 6 minutes before serving.
