Definitely the recipe I was looking for. Creamy and cheesy. I was using the one that adds cottage cheese, but this one tastes the way you expect mac and cheese to taste. The only thing I did differently was to use regular bacon. This is the recipe I'll go to when I'm craving mac and cheese.

This recipe is AWESOME! I had been looking for a good mac & cheese recipe that didn't call for Velveeta or bread crumbs, and this one is perfect. It was creamy and delicious. Instead of the bacon, I added grilled chicken and steamed broccoli. I will definitely be making this again.

I used this basic recipe, but omitted the veggie bacon and added mushrooms instead. I also halved the recipe and used 7 oz of smoked gouda and no cheddar. it was AWESOME. Next time, i'd like to try it with shrimp, bacon bits, and more mushroom.
