2 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
2 tablespoons blue cheese
1/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoons salt
3 cups macaroni
1 cup frozen peas

Puree the hot vegetables in a blender, then gradually add the buttermilk, pureeing until smooth. Add 2 cups of the cheddar cheese, the blue cheese, Parmesan and salt, and puree until smooth.
Cook the macaroni according to package directions. Add the peas at the last minute, just to thaw in the boiling water. Drain and shake thoroughly to dry. Put the pasta and peas back in the pot and stir in the sauce. In a small bowl, mix the remaining 1/2 cup cheddar with the breadcrumbs.
