Not even the kids liked it
This sounded like a good recipe and was very well reviewed. My only variation from the recipe was use of high protein, multi-grain pasta in place of traditional. The dish wasn't creamy or gooey, rather dry and grainy.

Delicious!
Macaroni & cheese! The ultimate comfort food and the "cheesier the better!" I have shared this recipe with many people.

Mac and cheese not as creamy as expected.
It had a good taste but I expected it to look like the picture shown with the recipe. It appeared creamer in the picture than it actually was.

Good stuff
I tried this recipe out today and it was quite yummy. I was confused as to why it said to put the mac in a 1 1/2 qt. dish, since that's way too small. I topped mine off with some monterrey and parmesan after stirring. I am a HUGE lover of mac & cheese, and it didn't let me down, although it didn't look much like the picture. I was expecting it to be more creamy. Definitely cheesy and good though.
