Mac 'n' Cheese Minis
['Juice of 1 large lemon, divided', '2 teaspoons cornstarch', '1 clove garlic, halved', '1/2 cup chicken broth', '1/4 cup kirsch (or cherry brandy)', '1/8 teaspoons freshly grated nutmeg', '3/4 cup grated lowfat Swiss cheese', '1/4 cup grated Gruyère', '8 ounces small pasta (such as elbow macaroni), cooked 1 minute less than directed on package', '2 tablespoons seasoned breadcrumbs', '1 cup arugula', '1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper']
Heat oven to 400°F. Pour 1/2 the lemon juice into a mug or bowl and stir in cornstarch. Rub inside of a saucepan with garlic; cut clove halves into pieces and add to pan. Add broth, kirsch and nutmeg. Bring to a slow boil over medium-high heat. Add cheeses. Reduce heat to medium, stirring until cheese melts, 2 to 3 minutes. (Mixture will separate.) Stir in juice-cornstarch mixture, cooking until sauce comes together, 30 seconds. Stir in pasta and spoon into 8 small ramekins or espresso cups. Top with breadcrumbs; transfer to a baking sheet. Bake, uncovered, until tops bubble, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from oven; transfer ramekins to a wire rack to cool, 4 to 5 minutes. Toss arugula, remaining lemon juice and pepper in a bowl. Top each mac 'n' cheese with salad.
