Make the Spaetzles
Basic spaetzle recipe
While you are making the spaetzle caramelize the onions with half the melted butter
Grate the Emmentaler Cheese
Add a bit of cream to the spaetzle and 1/2 cup cheese
This is another sauce I make to lower the calories
it is non fat sour cream and laughing cow cheese heated lightly in the
microwave.
Add the sauce to the Spaetzle
Then I found a 2% swiss cheese that lowered the fat content
Add some butter to the bottom of your glass pan
Add a layer of Spaetzle then onions, then cheese
Repeat the layers finish with some onions.
Bake in 350 degree oven for 20 -30 minutes till lightly browned and bubbling
Let sit for a few minutes before cutting and you can cut a nice layered square.
