I really wanted to love this recipe, but it was just okay. The sauce was missing something to it, whether it be another kind of cheese to round out the flavour a bit more, or something else, but I will admit that I was a little disappointed with this. I made it for a group of friends, and everyone ate it, and there weren’t any leftovers, however this is definitely one of those recipes that you need to play around with before you find a dish that's to your liking. I recommend it to anyone who loves blue cheese, but if you're looking at the ingredients thinking that you want to add something else to it, trust that instinct, and add whatever it is that you're thinking about.

Wow, great! I halved the flour and subbed sour cream for yogurt. Awesome!

I took this to a potluck and came home with an empty dish. I made it pretty hasitly and forgot to add the flour and it turned out plenty good, not runny at all! Love this!

I loved this, but one of my friends wasn't crazy about it since the bleu cheese tends to stay clumped and does not hold as well to the noodles like typical mac and cheese. If no one else though, I would make it for myself during one of my bleu cheese cravings. Plus I think its easier to make healthier since bleu cheese is already so strong, you don't have to make it as fatty and cheesy like regular mac and cheese.

This is amazing! We've made it several times and we just love it. I always use half/half (sometimes FF half/half) and fat-free plain yogurt, and it still tastes great. It's delicious with blue cheese, but I'm also looking forward to trying some other cheeses (like feta)! Highly recommend for an easy, sophisticated side dish!

I used feta cheese and substituted fat free half and half for the cream. It was really tasty. Next time I'll try with blue cheese.

Excellent side dish! I thought the flavors were great, not too strong. I only added three tablespoons flour to the butter and peppers. And I baked it with additional parm cheese on top, just to make that great crust.

Made this exactly as directed and it was a big hit. My boyfriend loves blue cheese, while I am only so-so on it, but the flavor was creamy but not too overpowering. A very yummy and adult mac and cheese.

The flavor is too strong and the recipe too rich; we could only eat a few bites...and we love blue cheese. Perhaps this would work better if paired with a beef dish to balance the strong flavor.

this is very rich and definitely for bleu-cheese lovers. If you're not passionate about the bleu cheese, cut it back to 1/4 cup and add 1/4 cup of cheddar cheese. Like previous reviewers have noted, this sauce is very thick, so either add more cream (or milk) to thin it out to desired consistency or cut back on the flour by 1/4-1/2 cup. I would also recommend chopping the bells peppers rather than slicing them...the slices were a bit big. I have another mac n' cheese recipe that I like more, so I will likely return to that one. But this is a nice variation on your standard recipe.

Dear Sara - I will be sending you my liposuction bill from eating massive quantities of this macaroni. This is very, very good. It's almost exactly like the Gorgonzola Chicken dish that I get at my favorite restaurant. DEFINTITELY use an extra 3/4 cup of cream or use less flour. It doesn't need as much flour as it calls for unless you like a VERY THICK sauce. Even with the extra cream it was thick, so keep that in mind! I made this without the peppers, not a fan. This would also work very well with chicken and penne instead of just a flat out "macaroni and cheese".

This was pretty good...very blue-cheesy!! I added milk to create a smoother sauce, and after it was done I ended up adding fresh spinach which I thought was a nice addition.

My husband and I really love this dish! I make it according the directions - no additions or omissions. It is quite rich, though, so I usually serve it with light foods (like a tossed salad and simply seasoned meat)
