I give it as written... BUT... After my alterations, it would be a 4 or 5 star :] I added a couple cups of shredded cheese to the mixture and I added a scoop or two of sour cream and a scoop or two of mayonaise. I added about 20 oz of noodles instead of 16. I added some onion and garlic spices, and ome of my own special spice. I topped with sliced cheese. Oh, and my biggest change--I cut up some kielbasa and leftover cheese brauts... I wanted to make it a more complete meal... everyone loved it, definitely a keeper!! :D P.S. I used two slightly smaller pans, it was OVERFLOWING out of the one recommended.

Used this as a starting point to try and create a lower fat/lower cal mac & cheese. The soup did a great job. I added about 1.5 oz sharp cheddar to help flavor. Kids and I liked it a lot.

This is a great dish for a small party, and makes a great side dish for barbecue! Especially when picky kids are involved. I make it up a little bit ahead of time and bake it just before guest arrive. perfect!

This was a good base recipe. Like other users had mentioned, I used 1 can each of cream of chicken and cream of mushroom soup. I also used diced tomatoes in place of the tomato slices. Instead of layering the cheese & tomatoes, I mixed shredded cheddar cheese and the diced tomatoes into the hot macaroni & soup mixture. I also sprinkled breadcrumbs on top. My husband and 3-year-old son loved it!

This was really good. I used whole wheat pasta and added garlic powder, onion powder, worcestershire sauce and lots of grated chedder cheese to the cream of chicken. My kids loved it.

Very tasty. Instead of milk, I added Fat Free Half and Half - creamier and thicker than milk. I also used shredded vs. sliced cheddar so that I could top the bake with it to make it golden brown (and add a little extra inside for a cheesier flavor). I also topped with sprinkled bread crumbs and paprika.

This came out tasty. After reading some of the reviews, I decided to use two cans of cream of mushroom and I replaced regular milk with evaporated milk. I also eliminated the tomatoes. I first layered the bottom of the pan with shredded cheese, topped that with sliced cheese, then layered the macaroni and cheese with the shredded cheese. Next time I will try it with cream of chicken and see how that tastes.

I love this recipe! I have made this three times in as many weeks. I have gotten rave reviews each time I make this. I go with the cream of chicken soup, omit the tomatoes, and use more milk. I also put freshly ground black pepper into the soup as it is warming. Instead of the sharp cheddar, I use the Velveeta block cheese cut it into slices. I use Kraft Pepperjack cheese slices too. I put the two cheeses in between each layer, then break it up and put it all over the top. It is wonderful! I adjust the servings to 12 whenever I do this for a large group.

We rolled in some of the other reviewers suggestions by mixing half of the cheese right into the macaroni. We then used the remainder, along with the tomatoes on top. We also added a dusting of bread crumbs on top. We really like this simple and easy to make recipe. We've added a little salt to other mac n cheese recipes, but the chicken soup in this one took care of that for us. We probably would have actually added a dash of pepper. Our three year old devoured everything we gave her - a rarity. Looking forward to making this again!

This recipe is easy and better than box mac & cheese. I use cream of mushroom soup insead and mix in quite a bit more grated cheese rather than slices of cheese. I skip the tomato and then bake it with herbed bread crumbs and dots of butter on top.

I just made this. The only reason I gave this 4 and not 5 stars is because of the changes I made to suit our tastes and what I had on hand. The changes I made were as follows: Instead of cream of chicken soup, I used cream of mushroom, and a can of diced tomatoes that I put into the mixture, not on top. I also added a diced ham steak, and some cauliflower that I quickly steamed in the microwave. Finally I added dried minced onion, and used about 2 cups of grated cheese (1/2 cup in sauce) on top of everything. We all loved it, even my 10 month old! I will definitely make this again!

This was good, but liked it better with a can of seasoned diced tomatoes mixed in, and also mixed the cheese in. For a more protein-rich meal, cook 1 pound of diced chicken for 15 minutes in 1/4 cup butter in a fry pan and add to macaroni mixture. Top with the fresh tomato slices and bake 20 mins.

This was ok, I used seasoned canned tomatoes which I thought added some good flavor, but overall, this was just so-so. Maybe I didn't add enough cheese.

This recipe was pretty good. I used canned tomatoes, and used shredded cheese. It was a little dry, but very tasty. My husband loved it, and he normally doesn't like tomatoes.

I really love this! Of course pasta and cheese IS always a winner! I did alter a bit, in place of two cans of cream of chicken I added a can of cream of cheddar cheese and a can of cream of mushroom. And also instead of the 4 tomatoes I used a can of diced tomatoes flavored with basil and garlic and mixed it right in the macaroni. Just sooo yummy!

This recipe was good for me, because I need to go grocery shopping & I didn't have hardly anything to make dinner out of. It was good for a quick throw together dinner, but I don't think I would make it otherwise--it wasn't quite cheesy enough for me. If I did make it again, I would mix the cheese in, not just layer it on top. I added breadcrumbs (which I did like), and I didn't have fresh tomatoes, so I used drained diced.
