SKILLET MACARONI AND BROCCOLI AND MUSHROOMS AND CHEESE
This mac 'n' cheese, adapted from the book "Real Food Has Curves" by Bruce Weinstein and Mark Scarbrough, is quicker and easier to make than the classic casserole. It is hearty comfort food that easily functions as a main dish for vegetarians.

Steps:
- Mix the Cheddar and Parmigiano-Reggiano in a medium bowl. Set aside.
- Melt the butter in a large, high-sided, oven-safe skillet. Add the onion and cook, stirring often, until softened, about 3 minutes.
- Add the mushrooms and cook until they release their liquid and it comes to a simmer, and then reduces by about two-thirds, about 5 minutes.
- Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables in the skillet. Stir well to coat.
- Whisk in the milk in a steady, thin stream until creamy. Then whisk in the mustard, tarragon, salt and pepper. Continue whisking until the mixture starts to bubble and the liquid thickens, about 3 minutes
- Remove the skillet from the heat. Stir in three-quarters of the mixed cheeses until smooth. Then stir in the cooked pasta and broccoli.
- Preheat the broiler after setting the rack 4 to 6 inches from the heat source. Meanwhile, sprinkle the remaining cheese over the ingredients in the skillet. Set the skillet on the rack and broil until light browned and bubbling, about 5 minutes. (If your skillet has a plastic or wooden handle, make sure it sticks outside the oven, out from under the broiler, so the handle doesn't melt.) Cool for 5 to 10 minutes before dishing up.
