Very good baked macaroni and liked using the gouda cheese (we did double the recipe so used 16 oz of the gouda cheese) but thought the chicken flavor seemed out-of-place in this dish. Maybe next time using cream of mushroom or cream of celery instead. Thanks for sharing! -
Enjoyed this macaroni and cheese especially using the gouda cheese instead of cheddar. Cooked tri-color rotini pasta and let that drain well. Added enough milk to thin down the soup a bit and than added it to the pasta along with everything but the hot sauce. Placed in a glass baking dish and topped with some extra bread crumbs. A very good meatless meal but I think adding diced ham and broccoli would also be tasty. Made and reviewed for Susie's World Tour 2019 - Benelux. -
Great upscale Mac and Cheese. I cooked the macaroni in my Instant Pot and maybe one minute too long. I used some chicken broth in the water. I also had a giant chunk of Gouda and shredded a big piece. Might have been closer to a pound. Used it all. Can't have too much cheese. Subbed crushed Ritz crackers for bread crumbs. Loved by all. -
I didn't find that this was too much sauce, it was actually quite perfect. What I did do was bake it in individual ramekins, rather than one big one, maybe that made the difference. I also sliced cherry tomatoes for garnish, as my husband really Really likes tomatoes with his mac n cheese, no matter how fancy it is! I liked the addition of mustard, and the addition of hot sauce ( I probably added more than the recipe asked for, but we enjoyed it!). Thank you, enjoyed this comfort food with a spin!

My Husband and I thought this recipe was a bit bland. We like the kick that cheddar gives mac and cheese better I guess. I liked the addition of the chives though. Thank you.

I didn't start cooking until my early 20's, even though I come from a family of accomplished and admired home cooks. While I grew up watching my Italian grandmother in the kitchen, I remained uninterested in trying anything on my own. As a young lady, I was known for being particularly ignorant in the kitchen, with no idea how to even make a hot dog! All this changed, however, when I got engaged. I realized it was time to let my inherent talents out of the bag. At the time, the New York Times had a weekly column called The 60-Minute Gourmet by Pierre Franey. Each week, I would follow these recipes diligently, and taught myself to cook that way. From there, I began to read cookbooks and consult with relatives on family recipes. At my ripe old age now, I feel I know enough to put together a very pleasing meal and have become accomplished in my own right. Having an Irish father and an Italian mother, I'm glad I inherited the cooking gene (and the drinking one too!). One thing I have learned is that simpler is always better! I always believe cooking fills a need to nurture and show love. After being widowed fairly young and living alone with my dog and cats, I stopped cooking for awhile, since I really had no one to cook for. I made care packages for my grown son occasionally, and like to cook weekly for my boyfriend, so I feel like I am truly back in the saddle!!
