"It was a hit at my holiday party! After reading the comments of users of this recipe, I also added the last cup of cheese until the last 10 minutes of baking to make it crunchier on the top. I also sprinkled Italian bread crumbs at the same time. This gave it a lot of good flavor baked into the top layer of cheese. I also baked my macaroni and cheese in a 13 x 9 glass dish instead of the recommended dish. It worked out fine." - DeeDub85

    Excellent recipe!!! My family loved it!!!

    Used aged white cheddar, gouda, colby, and monterey jack. It was a hit and it cut down on the oil from regular cheddar. It was a hit with my family.

    Made as part if Easter dinner. Everyone loved it. I added crushed ritz crackers mixed with melted butter on top for the last 10 min. Uncovered. Had to let side for about 15 min to let mac and cheese set. It was great.

    The eggs made it bake up like scrambled eggs. Not creamy at all, but nice and cheesy.

    I cooked it tonight. It was easy. I added crumbled buttered crackers on top ten mins before end of cooking time. Family liked it which is a huge plus. Next time I make it I will add some different spices to get more flavor...overall great dish.

    I have made this at least 3x and it was good. I used Heavy Whipping Cream in place of the milk and it was decadent!!

    Loved it! Doubled the recipe and added a sleeve of crumbled saltines as a top layer. Yummy!!!

    im going to add some chicken stock next time it was a little bland but pretty easy to make

    This is easy and really tasty. The only thing I did different is when the last cup of cheese was added I put it back in the oven and cooked it another 10-15 minutes uncovered. One more thing I will do is cut back on the salt the next time I make it.

    This is easy and very tasty. The only thing I did different was when the final 1 cup of cheese is added I put it back in the oven uncovered for 10-15 minutes. Next time I will reduce the salt. Other than that it's great and easy!
