I LOVE THIS MAC & CHEESE and so did everyone else who had it, even the kids. I only tweaked it a little - I cut down on the onion to taste. I used 1/2 cream and 1/2 milk and for my 3 cheeses, I used white sharp cheddar, mild cheddar, and monterey jack. I had so many rave reviews, someone just asked me to make it for a party of 40! Sounds easy enough! Thanks for this great recipe!

I recently took this to an Easter dinner at a friends house and got rave reviews. Friends have asked for the recipe and I have just emailed this one to them. It was simple and quick to make with a wonderful flavor.I fully expected to spend my day in the kitchen working on homemade Mac and Cheese (as I have heard horror stories) but this one is a definite keeper. Thank you !

WONDERFUL!!! This recipe was fabulous! It even pleased my pickiest eater. I believe the onions gave it a gourmet taste - very different from any other I have tried. Now, I hate it when people change ingredients and then rate it. Sadly, I will now do just that, but I believe that the ratios in the original recipe are what make it a success. I only had available 1/2 pound of Colby Jack cheese and 1/4 pound of Cheddar cheese so I used them. I also added about 1/8 tsp of dried mustard to the butter/flour/milk portion. Originally, I was looking for a mac and cheese recipe with a crunchy topping. I found this recipe, made the above changes and added 6 crushed Club Crackers (Garlic Flavor) to the top. Baked as directed and was it ever delicious! This recipes is a keeper.

I dont usually give 5 stars , but for this recipe I must give 5 stars. I changed a couple things A Little . We didn't have any processed cheese, so we used Sharp cheese in it's place. We added 1 egg, 1 tsp Oregano , and put a light coating of bread crumbs on top before baking. SOOOOO good ! We will definitley be making this again ! thank you.

I followed the recipe exactly. This dish baked up beautifully. I had high hopes. And, it wasn't bad. But, the flavor was a bit bland. After one bite, everyone reached for the salt shaker. Once they added the salt, they all said it was good. But, it didn't wow them. I think that adding a splash of Tabasco or hot sauce or hot pepper jack cheese like some reviewers have suggested would solve that issue. I'll make this again and try to spice it up.

Very good. I doubled the recipe and added 1/2 cup pepper jack cheese for an extra cheesy kick.

I have made this a long time. I soften the onion in the butter and flour though! It is sooo good. I just use velvetta block cheese though. On occasion I will use any leftover ham (cubed) from a previous dinner.

I make this for every family gathering, only because they ask for it and it has to be the best mac and cheese I have ever made. The only thing different that I do, is omit the swiss cheese and add 8oz. of cream cheese. It's the best and richest you will ever taste.

This recipe never disappoints me! I have made it several times, but I use any cheese I have on hand which is usually cheddar & montery jack. Sometimes I use a combination of half milk & half cream if I have it. Always good!

The only reson that I did not give 5 stars is becuse I changed a few things. I used Barilla pluss noodles, whole wheat flour, added a few dashes of hot sauce, werchester (sp?), and a small suirt of mustard. Finally I mixed some left over provalone and munster slices.

Just like my grandmother used to make! Never could get my mac & cheese casserole baked to compare anywhere near as tasty as hers, but this recipe helped me edge closer to her prize winning dish. It's a keeper in our family. Thanks Jaydene!

This is really great, being the cheese freak that I am, I added a bit mroe cheese to my liking. I also used sharp cheddar rather than colby. I was very satisfied and will definitely make it again.
