Steps:
- Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir onions, thyme, and bay leaf in the butter for 5 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook until onions are browned, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer to a plate and discard the bay leaf. Reserve the skillet.
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook elbow macaroni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes.
- Meanwhile, melt remaining butter in the reserved skillet over medium heat. Whisk in flour for 1 minute, then whisk in beef broth and milk and bring to a boil; season with nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Reduce heat and cook until thickened, about 5 minutes. Stir in Gruyere cheese until melted.
- Drain macaroni and toss with onion and sauce until well combined.

[email protected]I thought the French Onion Mac and Cheese was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either. I probably won't make it again.

[email protected]This recipe was a fail. The mac and cheese was bland and the caramelized onions were burnt. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

[email protected]Overall, the French Onion Mac and Cheese was a good dish. It was easy to make and had a nice flavor. However, I found the caramelized onions to be a bit overpowering. Next time, I will use less onions or caramelize them for a shorter amount of time.

[email protected]The French Onion Mac and Cheese was a bit too rich for my taste. The flavor was good, but the dish was very heavy. I think I would have enjoyed it more if it had been made with a lighter cheese.
