Ingredients:
1 8 oz. package penne pasta (but I used good old elbows)
2 tbs. butter
2 tbs. flour
1-1/2 cups milk (I used 2%)
1/2 cup half-and-half (I used Fat Free)
1/2 cup (4 oz) shredded white Cheddar cheese
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 cup (8 oz) shredded Gruyere cheese, divided
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
pinch of ground nutmeg

Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Prepare pasta according to package directions.

2. Meanwhile, melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in flour; cook, whisking constantly, one minute. Gradually whisk in milk and half-and-half; cook, whisking constantly, 3 to 5 minutes or until thickened. Stir in Cheddar, Parmesan and 1/2 cup Gruyere cheeses, and next 3 ingredients until smooth.

3. Stir together pasta and cheese mixture and pour into 4 lightly greased 8-oz baking dishes or into 1 lightly greased 11 x 17 inch baking dish. Top with remaining 1/2 cup Gruyere cheese.
