Who would have thought that Velvetta cheese was the secret to a restaurant style mac and cheese recipe? This is our favorite Mac and cheese meal. The first time I made it I followed the recipe exactly. I have made it several times since and have changed it up a bit. I use skim milk instead of the cream and depending on how 'milky' the kids' like it, I have added up to a 1/4 cup. I also have left out the cheddar cheese only because I didn't have any and it was very good.

WOW!!! This was absolutely delicious! I used Ronzoni whole grain rotini, 2% Velveeta and whole milk instead of cheese and it was PLENTY rich and with reduced fat and calories to boot! I did have to keep adding more milk to make it a little "saucier". I put it all in a casserole dish, sprinkled it with breadcrumbs and baked it off just until heated through. HUGE hit!!!!

This mac and cheese recipe is a HUGE hit in our home. My 3yr old asks for it at least once a week. With leftovers, that's eating it twice a week. My husband and I like it much better than the box. We also delivered it in a dinner when we were helping some people out - they absolutely loved it too. Said I was the best cook in town!!! :) Thank you for sharing!

I really liked this meal. I did change a couple things though. I made this for 6 so I did a full box of elbows and a cup of cheddar chesse. I also added some cut up ham and a two cups of peas to make more of a whole meal. I would def make this again my family loved it.

Yummy! The whole family loved it! I loved it because I made it with whole wheat pasta and 2% processed cheese. I also used whole milk instead of cream b/c that's what I had on hand. Will make again...and again and again!

My son came home from college having spent $120 during finals week on pizza hut's mac and cheese with bacon. We tried this recipe and added crumbled bacon bits to mimic his new favorite dish. He loved this better than delivery and we made several pounds of it for $15. He brought a couple of pans full back to campus this week and his roommates gave it all thumbs up. Delicious!!!And easy! Its a keeper!

I've made this a lot b/c its a quick and easy mac and cheese recipe. But it not a really good one and certainly not the best. My problem with this recipe is it is too thick and gets too dried out too quick. I add more milk or cream, but then I start to lose flavor. I now just make it out of the box or make the really good off this site. Yum.

This was a good recipe. However only make the amount you need, because it is not good as left overs.

This recipe is good, but not great. It is guick and easy, but takes a little too salty for me and I didn't add any salt. I doubled the recipe and used cheddar, monterey jack, Velveeta and half and half. It was very cheesy (loved by the kids), but almost too cheesy for the adults in my house. I can see by the consistency that it would not reheat well tomorrow so I didn't keep the leftovers (something I hate to do). Next time, I'll stick with the baked macaroni and cheese.

This was really good. Leftovers turned out well too. It actually seemed to taste better and had a thicker texture.

Liked the flavor however I doubled the recipe and it turned out very sticky. I will try again with exact recipe and see if it was me or the recipe. I was looking for creamy Mac and Cheese.

I LOVE how quick this was to make. My only complaint is it was a little too thick and creamy for us, next time I believe I will use more liquid. All in all this recipe is a keeper for those nights I have very little time...or I'm less than motivated. ;)

Creamy and easy. Will definitely be making this over kraft! Only modification was using american cheese slices instead of the processed cheese and also chunked up cheddar. Very good recipe!

This tastes just like the mac and chs from the kids menu at Outback steakhouse which my daughter orders everytime we go there! It so good we all usually have to have a bite or two!:) however with this recipe I definately had to add more cream. I also used Mostaccioli shells instead. Very fast and easy!!! which I always like!
