Mac and Cheese Lorraine

I got this from a Rachael Ray 30-min meals and just skinnied it up. The points are from the WW recipe builder, so they should be pretty accurate. In any case, this recipe is TO DIE FOR. So good, feels like it should be way more points. For those of you who were there, this is what I was eating during the WW meeting when everyone was saying how good my lunch smelled.

• 8 oz uncooked whole-wheat pasta
• 2 oz gruyere cheese
• 1 tsp ground nutmeg
• 1 tsp black pepper
• 1 tsp table salt
• 1 cup chopped onion(s)
• 2 cup Fat-free Half & Half
• 2 Tbsp all-purpose flour
• 2 slices Center Cut bacon
• 1/4 cup white wine
• (optional) 8 oz sliced mushrooms

Cook pasta according to package directions.

Cook bacon in a large skillet, when crispy, remove and crumble. Set aside. Do not drain pan.

Then, add onions (and mushrooms if desired) to drippings, cook until soft but not brown, add wine and cook a bit longer. Add half and half and flour, cook until thick and bubbly. Add cheese. Add bacon back to sauce and serve over pasta.
