Very good and tangy.

I used this recipe today out of desperation. I'm tired of the same old macaroni and cheese and was looking to change it. After looking in the cupboard and realizing that there was no cream of mushroom soup, I just used half mayo/half sour cream up to 1/4 c. and added milk to make it a little soupy. I threw in a can of drained tuna fish and used a remnants of a bag of provolone/mozzerella cheese blend. I didn't add veggies, as the kids would rather eat the veggies on the side of their macaroni and cheese. It came together nicely. I added chopped tomatoes and Tabasco to mine. I'll be sure to make this again with different ingredients next time.

This is a great, quick dinner. I threw in about a cup of frozen peas a few minutes before the pasta was done. I also added a can of tuna and a can of mushrooms. Threw in plenty of black pepper and garlic powder. After putting it all in a casserole dish, I just spread a thin layer of shredded cheese on top, then covered with crushed potato chips, since that's what I had on hand. I only baked it for about 15 minutes and it was perfect. Creamy and filling!

WOW!!! This is GREAT! We eat TONS of mac and cheese (blue box,like 5 times a week!) and this was soooo FILLING! Not a fan of cream of mushroom, so used cream of chicken instead, and added some frozen peas to the water the last 2 minutes of boiling. If onion was added it might almost taste like the "potluck" or "Wedding" potatoes...have to think about that next time! Thank you for a new favorite! :-)

This is a super-versatile AND EASY recipe. My husband loves it! I won't make regular mac-and-cheese again. In fact, you don't even have to use the boxed kind-- just use your own pasta (any shape that suits you) and simply add in cheese of any kind. I also use cream of celery soup because he's not a fan of mushrooms and the buttery crackers on top give it a little crunch that absolutely makes the dish!

After reading the reviews I was a little worried abou the mushroom soup so I subsituted cream of celery instead and I really liked the flavor. I had to add some milk because it seemed SO thick when I mixed it all together. I guess I like my mac and cheese to be a little more creamy. This was a great way to turn a box of mac and cheese into something a little more substantial. I added chunks of cooked chicken and half of a 10 oz. bag of broccoli to make it a complete meal. I also threw in some onion powder and ground mustard to add a little bit of flavor to the boring "processed" taste. I also made my own crumb topping by putting two slices of bread in the oven as it pre-heated to dry them out a bit. Then, I tore them up and put them into a food processor with about a tbl of cold butter, some seasoning salt and pepper. Processed to a fine crumb, it makes a nice crunchy topping that beats a ritz cracker. I'll probably make this again but might be worth spending a few extra cents on the campbell's healthy request just to eliminate some of the sodium.

Thanks for the awesome recipe! Wouldn't change a thing!

I'm giving it 4 stars just because I made some modifications, but it was awesome. I used cream of chicken soup, real butter and an Italian cheese mix. Next time I will cut back on the butter because it was super rich. I don't normally like mac n cheese but I loved this, and my husband was in heaven. This will go into regular rotation, I'm sure.

This is the ultimate comfort food! I have also made it with shredded velveta, which works just as well.

I love this recipe! So easy, except for the cheese all the ingredients are cheap and its always a hit at potlucks!

This recipe was not good to me at all. Cream of mushroom soup and cheese do NOT mix well in a baked pasta dish. It was awful. It also sort of made me feel sick after eating it, so I threw it all away.

I did not like this at all. There was way too much margarine for this recipe. This is not something I'd make again

I wasn't crazy about this. I'm not too crazy about boxed mac & cheese.

I used cream of chicken soup and topped with "whales" crackers (my kids love these more than goldfish)...yummy!!! Super easy and a change to just mac n cheese...

Way WAY too salty. Perhaps skip the powdered cheese packet? I don't know, but I have TONS of leftovers....

This isn't bad as a side dish, but it is rather bland (too bland to please as a main dish IMO). I will make it again with modifications...I'm thinking cheese soup (instead of mushroom) and herbed crutons (instead of crackers).

This mac and cheese was excellent...creamy and cheesy. Yummy!

This dish is excellent for a starving, busy college student like myself. Adding a can of drained tuna or a cup of cooked shredded chicken (I use store-bought rotisserie chicken)and canned peas and carrots, this is a complete meal with tons of lefovers! Also freezes beautifully!

Wow, take box mac and cheese and make it taste like Stouffer's baked mac and cheese. Awesome. The 1/4 of butter at the end was a little much, next time I will crush the Ritz crackers and mix it with 1/8 cup butter, then sprinkle on top of the mac and cheese.

I was disappointed that the flavor of the mushroom soup still came through.I knew then my daughter would say yuck. I think cheddar cheese soup would be the best bet and will try that next time.
