I liked this; I did grind the bread pieces to make them into coarse crumbs. I also added about a cup of grated sharp cheese to the crumbs & butter....we love the extra cheese and it made a yummy topping. I'm not crazy about soup or onions in my mac & cheese.

I loved this. My kids did too!!! I just added 1/2 cp more cheese since my kids like things extra cheesy. But if it was just me I would have done it just like the recipe said!!! Great taste!!!

Good recipe, but DEFINITELY double the cheese. Even so, mine was a bit dry, so I think I may use a bit more milk next time too. I used a combo of Cheddar and Blue Cheese, and it tasted good.

This was a really tasty meal. I did change a few things. I added a can of cheddar cheese soup, only 1 cup of milk and cheese on top instead of the bread pieces or ritz. I also only cooked it for 22 minutes, then I put extra cheese on top and for another 3 minutes on broil. It turned out very creamy and cheesy!

I found this recipe about a year ago and it's become my favourite. The recipe is simple and very, very yummy. I make the sauce pretty much as written, except I add some paprika and finely chopped yellow onions. Instead of adding bread to the top, I sprinkle a thin layer of bread crumbs and after the macaronia has baked for 30 minutes, I broil it for just a minute or two so the breadcrumbs become crunchy. This is a great basic recipe and it's one of my all time favourite things to cook!!!

Cooked the sauce as directed then added a can of cream of chicken soup, put in a dish, crumbled seasoned crutons (butter & garlic) as a top layer and sprinkled with melted butter. Put in oven for 30min. My family loved it.

This was my first time making mac and cheese from scratch. Doubled cheese as others suggested and added a bit more salt and pepper. topped with 1 sleeve of crushed Ritz crackers mixed with the 4 Tbls of melted butter. Will make again and add ham or bacon to it.

Okay, a couple pointers: make sure you start the pasta well in advance of the cheese sauce. My sauce was VERY thick WAY before the water was even at a boil. TASTE your cheese sauce before you add the pasta to it. Mine was VERY blah and I even contemplated adding some seasoned salt to the sauce but just added salt till I liked the flavor. I topped it with day old baguette that I coarsely chopped in my food processor. I did NOT put melted butter on top of that. Trying to find a way to keep this dish a little healthy. (Yeah, right.) I did not salt the casserole before baking. Some people have different tastes so I just put salt on the table. (But salt is IMPERATIVE in the sauce. Or, find some EXTRA sharp cheese to guarantee flavor.) It was good but not to-die-for...

Why do you need bread, flour and all that other stuff in noodles? (I didn't want to submit a rating, I'm not saying it tastes bad. (never tried it.))

A great classic mac and cheese! Easy to make too. Don't let the flour/milk 'roux' scare you either! Use a spatula and keep scaping the bottom in a pan you tip up so that you concentrate it into one side. I added 1/2 c more and different combinations of cheddar cheeses and also a bit more milk for a creamier, cheesier taste. It's my family's favorite = )

I used penne pasta and topped with lots of cheese instead of bread crumbs. This was very, very good. I also used the mexican blend of shredded cheese instead of just cheddar to give it some spice.

Great recipe. I don't put the bread or the butter on the top, I just broil it with cheese on top. Trying to keep the calories a bit lower! Sometimes its nice with a sprinkling of breadcrumbs on top with the cheese.

After reading other suggestions, I put in 3 times the amount of cheese, used heavy cream instead of milk and did the Ritz cracker topping. This turned out to be the best mac & cheese I have ever had!

I used half the amount of pasta than the recipe required and I couldn't find white cheddar cheese so I used the orange sharp cheddar cheese. Other than that, I followed the recipe exactly. The result didn't taste cheesy enough (not sure if that had anything to do with the cheese I used), so next time I will probably double the amount of cheese. Also, I will try the ritz cracker topping as recommended by another reviewer. My bf thought it was very good once he melted extra cheese into his serving.

I had been looking for a basic recipe that would be a hit with kids - this is a winner! I added a few dashes of ground mustard for a little zip and also used Ritz crackers instead of bread for the topping.
