Oh, So Creamy!

Being a lover of Mac & Cheese, I could not resist trying this one! So creamy and quick! The mustard gives it a twist! I added bread crumbs on top to finish it off! It was terrific! Thanks!

Great!

I added more cheddar than it called for and used Pepper Jack instead of American, only because I wanted a little kick to it. I always add more cheese in every recipe I make than the recipe calls for, so it is no reflection of this recipe. It was very good. Even the picky children ate it!

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.

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.
