This dish was great and I got rave reviews once I made a few changes. I added 1/2 cup more of each cheese, as I found the cheese sauce not thick enough. I also added more spinach, a bit of nutmeg and a pinch of cayenne.

This mac and cheese was okay. It needed more cheese, for some reason when i made it as indicated on the recipe it came out dry. It was not a huge hit with my kids like i thought it would be. Not sure if I will make this again.

I added more cheese (just under 1 cup of munster and a bit more spinach - closer to a cup but the recipe came out great. Very creamy and great flavor.

Loved this mac & cheese. The tomatoes made it extra tasty. Skipped the bread crumbs. Never been a fan Used more cheese on top instead. Will definitely make again. Big Daddy rocks!

Thanks Aaron for the basic idea.... I did double the cheese and used 2 cups of spinach. All 4 members of our family loved it - including an EXTREMELY picky teenage girl! We're keeping this in our "tried it and loved it" recipe book.

I really like the way it looked on tv, but it didn't seem to call for enough spinach and tomatoes or even cheese for that matter. It was tasty but definitely not as lush and creamy as Aaron's did. I hardly saw the tomatoes and spinach that I mixed into it. I think maybe the written recipe just didn't match his "eyeball" recipe. I'll try it again and use my eyeball measurements and maybe a bit more paprika and more flavorful cheeses to make a bit sharper.

Oh boy, I really wanted to like this dish. It seemed like all the ingredients, when combined, would be delicious. I followed the recipe exactly as indicated, step by step, but did not like it at all. The amount of breadcrumbs was overwhelming (yes, I used the Panko brand as recommended. It was just way too much for 1/2 lb. of pasta. Would not make this dish again!!!

This was an easy and tasty twist on Mac n 'Cheese. Easy to prepare, the only change I made was to chop up the spinach and saute it a little before adding to the cheese and pasta. My guests loved this recipe and so did I. I will prepare this again.
