Carmalized Onions and Blue Cheese Orzo

What you neeed to make it:
1 pound uncooked orzo pasta
2 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons olive oil
4 onions, sliced
6 1/2 ounces blue cheese, crumbled
3 1/2 ounces mascarpone cheese
2 cups shredded spinach
salt and pepper to taste

What you do with all that:

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente; drain.
While pasta is cooking, heat butter and oil in a large skillet over low heat. Cook onion in this mixture until golden brown, 20 to 30 minutes.
In a large bowl, combine blue cheese, mascarpone and onion and mix well. Toss cheese mixture with spinach and pasta, season with salt and pepper and serve.

My after dinner comments:
I felt that there was too much of a blue cheese flavor, but that could be becuase i am not a HUGE fan of blue cheese. I'll eat it, but if there is another option, i'd pass on the blue cheese. It was actually kind of strange, cause when you take a bite, you taste the sweet carmalized onions and then you taste the blue cheese and it's very odd, but strangly yummy! It's more of a side dish then a main course, so i also seasoned 3 pieced of salmon with some italion seasoning and then baked them for 25 min at 350. I placed the salad mixture/pasta on the bottom and then placed the salmon on top. It was wonderful! Just know that even though the recipe said the above made enough for 4, i wouls say that it made more like 10 peoples worth.

Will i make it again?: YES! For sure!
