Great base recipe with adjustments. Skip the bread crumbs entirely. DO add 1/2 cup milk to the mixture. And to create a creamier sauce, blend the cottage cheese until nearly smooth, then add remaining ingredients in processor and whirl together for a few seconds. I also added hot dogs for more flavor!

Although it was not bad, I really didn't love this recipe. I grew up eating my mom's mac and cheese made with a very basic cheese bechamel sauce and this doesn't really measure up...it had more of a dry/lumpy texture (and I added 1/2 cup of milk as some reviewers had suggested).

I didn't care for as much of the bread crumbs as there were and it was not as "creamy" as I would have preferred, that can be tweaked though and that being said, it has a delicious flavor to it.

This was pretty good but I was looking for something a bit more creamy. My husband didn't care for the topping on it. I'll probably just stick with my basic recipe.

After making this I had to go back and see if I followed the recipe correctly, which I did. It was good I guess, and very easy to make, but the cheese sauce didn't come together at all. It was like cottage cheese with melted bits of cheddar sprinkled throughout. I like macaroni and cheese to have a thick, smooth, creamy sauce, and this didn't come out that way at all. It didn't taste bad, it was just disappointing cause it wasn't what I think of when I think of mac and cheese.

I thought this was a really good quick and easy Mac N Cheese. I usually make a very labor intensive mac for special occassions. I wouldn't make this when I want to impress because the flavors aren't intense enough but I will make it again for a regular dinner when I'm craving cheesy carbs! I will also add in some extras next time (bacon, veggies, cayenne pepper, etc).

Ive only had Mac and Cheese out of a box once when I was younger and didnt like it at all, so whenever I had the chance to try anyone else's I refused. Now that Ive made plenty of baked dishes with meat I wanted to try this and it came out great! The only alterations I made were adding onion and bacon, still used the full cup of bread crumbs because I like the texture and didnt add any milk as reviewers suggested as I prefer a cheesier texture. This was perfect, will make again but double the cheddar!

I made this the other night for my family. It was FABULOUS! The leftovers sat in the fridge for a day, then enjoyed by my husband and I for lunch. It was GREAT!!! I will definitely make this again. I've already shared the recipe with friends and family.

The macaroni had very good flavor but was quite dry and needs more cheese or liquid. Also, it had WAY too much bread crumbs on top. I will reduce by half next time. With these few tweaks I think this recipe has potential.

I thought this was just ok, there were too many bread crumbds for me. I would have liked it to have been more cheesy.

This was really good! The only thing I would add to this is maybe some more cheese because it was a little dry. But very good. yummmmmm

This had a decent flavor but the cottage cheese really threw the texture off and made it look very strange. I could never serve something that looked like this. Back to the search for mac and cheese.

EXCELLENT!!!!! Cant wait to have this again. Made it lastnight and it's already gone today. Only changes I made were: Shell pasta; added PepperJack cheese; Didn't use butter, just lightly sprinkled some bread crumbs on top. Best mac N cheese recipe I've tried AND made myself!

Quick and Easy! My wife loves it. I halved it, mixed in a cup of milk and replaced the bread crumbs with crushed corn flakes. Move it up a rack for the last ten minutes to add more color to the topping. Things you can add: ham, peas, onion or tomato sauce. Don't tell my wife but I did add a little more cheese then it called for.
