My first time making macaroni cheese and a good recipe to try. I didn't use breadcrumbs or parmesan so was even easier to make :o) - 04 Mar 2014 (Review from Allrecipes UK & Ireland)
I followed this recipe down to a tee and my macaroni has never turned out so dry. I will stick with my own version which incorporates butter and garlic to produce a roux which leads to a moist and delicious macaroni. - 02 Jun 2016 (Review from Allrecipes UK & Ireland)
