The gruyere makes this worthy of a Sunday Dinner. I usually have nothing left over for myself the next day. This recipe came from Martha Stewart website. Note: I've made it with hot and cold milk and couldn't taste the any difference with the hot milk so that step can be skipped. I cook everything (besides the pasta) in a medium saucepan. I also use Cellentani pasta for a more special "look".
