I was really disappointed with this recipe,it wasn't good at all. The taste was strange and the cheese and bread crumbs burnt and never crumbled for the topping. Thanks anyway. Sincerely Barbara
my kids hated it

This was the first recipe, I tried of Robins. It looked interesting on the show, however it is not for my family. It was very dry. I would add more cheese and very little bread crumbs
yummy!

My husband and daughter (2) gobbled this up and asked for seconds! I'm not a big fan on dijon mustard, but I really loved this dish. It was simple and good. I used capatavi noodles instead and they turned out very well.
Good

Tasty, except I'd leave out the nutmeg next time. I think it overpowers the dish.

I read the reviews before I made this because I saw it only received three stars. I agree that 2 tbls. of mustard is a bit much for the amount of sauce this makes, so I scaled it back to a heaping teaspoon - just enough mustard to give the sauce a tangy flavor. I also added another 1/2 cup of cheese. Also, the recipe states to stir the sauce constantly. Don't skip this step or you will end up with a grainy cheese sauce. The macaroni does get a little dry once it sits for a while, but ALL mac and cheese does that. Have you tried Kraft or Martha's recipe (which I adore, but too much of a hassle for a quick dinner) the next day? They both get dry and need a little milk to make them creamy again. My advice is to season to taste and keep tasting until the sauce is right for you and STIR!

This is a great recipe for those who want mac 'n cheese without the guilt and added inches around the waist. We thought the mustard bumped the flavor up and distracted from the fact that we saved many calories by using the fat free milk. The bread crumbs added crunch which made it seem like the fat laden version that has contributed to my families overweight problem. This is a great alternative to the artery clogging recipe.
ICK!!

This was not a good mac 'n cheese recipe. The bread crumbs were very overwhelming and it was all you tasted. The cheese sauce was very very bland. I ended up added 4 times as much cheese just to make it edible. I will not make this again.
dry and gummy

Don't make it. It was incredibly bland. I don't understand this show at all. The recipes are bad, the filming of the show is weird and she has the spunk of a wilted lettuce leaf. No personality.

Maybe I'm used to the old fashioned flavors of a standard Mac N Cheese caserole. This recipe has an odd smell and flavor. I think it was the Dijon mustard that set of my taste buds. The consistancy was excellent. It was very easy and quick to prepare and serve.I will try this again, however, I'll trim the Dijon back quite a bit.
not very cheesy

Not a hit with my family. It wasn't very cheesy so I added more cheese and still not cheesy. You could really taste the mustard and hot sauce.

But my family found it lacking in taste. It needed more of a cheese bite to it and maybe up the seasonings some. All in all I will stick with the mac and cheese I have made for years since it is far better and just as easy to make.

If you make any of Martha's recipes why would you even watch this show? This show is not for everyone - she gives good tips for people who are BUSY ( how many times does she have to say it) This is better than getting take out on the way home. If you have more time - more power to you. Give Robin a break......
easy but a little dry

I printed this recipe from my recipe box this morning to fix for Easter Dinner for our family today and just thought I would check the reviews which I always like to read before I prepare a dish that I save off the Food Network. The reviews were a little negative, but I wanted to give it a try because I love macaroni and cheese. Well, just as I thought my family loved it and my daughter wanted the recipe. I did leave out the mustard and nutmeg.
Not Martha's

I hate box mac'n cheese-too salty and too fake. First time we had this we did it plain-2nd time added peas and tuna along with some onions and green pepper. The fat free sour cream makes a difference.Truly a mid winter comfort food.

Maybe we should give that poor person a break--she's probably just cranky from making the macaroni from scratch. The rest of us in the real world want to feed our families tasty, healthy and attrative meals, and we have nothing to prove to anyone!

Lacks cheesy flavor

User: Janet from Selma, NC User Rating:
Although this recipe was easy to prepare and I liked the amount it made, the final product did lack a good cheesy flavor. I admit I did not add the hot sauce, but all the other ingredients went into the preparation bowl. I usually buy the commercial products of Stouffers and Kraft mac n' cheese, and so maybe we are used to their stronger, cheesy flavors, in comparison. And yes, I did salt the water when it came to a boil, before adding the pasta. So I was disappointed that it didn't taste better. Sorry, Robin.

this is a lower fat and calorie version of a wonderful, sinful mac n cheese i have been making for years. I added a seasoned salt instead of table salt. It kicked it up a bit. The grandkids loved it. Hubby wants the sinful version to stay in my repertoire... giggle.

Better your pasta, better your Mac N' Cheese

User: Shawn from Danville, CA User Rating:
If you want good pasta, you've GOT to do a couple of things. First of all, add a couple of heavy pinchs of salt into the water. This will season the pasta and keep it from being bland. Also, if you're going to add the pasta directly into the sauce, cook it a couple minutes under what the package says or so it's AL DENTE or tender on the outside but still undercooked on the inside. This way the pasta won't be mushy once it's in the sauce.
