I found this to be a little thick and bland at first. I added a little more milk and a pinch of garlic powder and nutmeg to give it a little more taste. It is easy and quick and healthier than a box mix. I'll try it again with a different cheese.

this recipe was so easy to make and everyone loved its creamy, fresh taste.i had no "starch" handy to serve with chicken; i found a box of elbow macaroni and thought about making mac&cheese but the recipe on the side of the box took over an hour! this was done in 10 minutes! thank you!

I only had a 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar, so I used 3 slices of white american too. We loved it.

I initially prepared this recipe as shown, but with the tiny additions of some of my faves from another recipe, a few drops of worcestershire sauce, and a pinch of ground mustard. After the microwaving, the consistancy was very creamy, even a little runny. However, the taste was quite bland. Kinda reminded me of Stouffers, which I think is just kinda so-so. I ended up about doubling the sharp cheddar cheese. After this, the dish had better flavor, but a somewhat gritty texture that worsened as I ate and it cooled. An OK recipe, maybe better with some work.

Great recipe. I use 2 Tablespoons of flour. By the time you cook your macaroni you have your other ingredients in the microwave. This recipe gets used alot when we get off work and "whats for dinner" Thanks for posting

this was very delicious, added a but more milk. I packed the cheese down when I was grating, so it came out more cheesier, also I would advise to wisk every 1 minute when in the micro, this makes it less lumpy.

I like this recipe because it is quick and easy but I like to add a parmesan cheese, dry white wine, and broccoli to 'kick it up a notch.'

Great starting point for basic mac and cheese. Was a little bland, but a little love can go a long way. I look forward to tweaking this recipe in the future.

Good recipe, especially when used as a starting point for your own tastes and ideas- I added more cheese, and some different kinds, for example. Also could use a little more salt. Overall- quick, easy, and yummy!

Really yummy exept I omitted the butter and used 3/4 T of flour instead of 3 T and I added 2 slices of american cheese. I also wisked it on top of the stove instead of microwaving. It took about 15 minutes. It was smooth and creamy.

This is a staple in our home. Creamy sauce and easy to make! I add a little bit of onion and chopped ham.. I go lighter on the flour and use SHARP cheddar for best flavor (IMHO). Cooking time was about half in my microwave so be sure to watch it and BE SURE TO WHISK IT EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE, per the directions, or you will get lumpy goo. Good quick meal.

I wouldn't try this recipe again. It was bland, even with more salt added. Also, I didn't like the consistency of the cheese sauce. It was too lumpy & gooey.

The flour was overpowering...maybe use less next time. I also baked it with cheese on top.

This recipe is quick, easy and tastes great. It is an excellent dish to attempt, if you are a novice in the kitchen! Using a microwave oven, to prepare the cheese sause, is a tremendous way to save time. (Remember, however, it is important to adjust microwave cooking times,in terms of the appliance model you are using. Otherwise, the cheese sause may be overcooked.)

was very easy and quick to make, but was very thick, gooey and bland. When salt was added, it was too much and the dish was pretty much ruined from the beginning. Next time I'll use a different recipe instead of going the easy route.
