Essentially a glorified baked mac and cheese. Perhaps using different cheeses may produce a more interesting dish.

This dish is great. Very easy to use. I made it for a dinner party for the first time and everyone loved it. I used regular bacon and was still delicious. Yummy!

Outstanding.

Added one clove pressed garlic and seasoned panko breadcrumbs to the top to please my family that likes a lot of flavor.

Boiled the pasta a little longer 7.3 minutes and glad I did, it would have been undercooked if not.

Fast, did this in 25 mintues. I also heated the milk which makes it a lot less likely to lump and cooks the bechamel faster.

This recipe blew me away! I substituted crumbled italian sausage for the proscuitto, but other than that I followed the recipe. It was a HUGE hit with my family and was just unbelievable scrumptious. I will make again, and again and again . . .

This is the fifth time I have made this dish. The first four times my teenagers weren't crazy about it (I had added different veggies and omitted the proscuitto. This time, both the kids had friends over and I needed something easy to make. I didn't have fontina or whole milk, so I substituted 2% milk and a combination of cheddar and parmasean cheeses. It was a hit with the four of us plus their friends. Using the 2% milk didn't change the creaminess of the sauce, it was just a lot lighter dish, which we enjoyed more. Any way you make this, it's delicious!! Thanks Giada, for a really easy and delicious recipe!!

I have been making this dish for about 4 years now and it is sooo good everytime. It is so perfect for special occasions. The only thing is, I always seem to forget the nutmeg and I do add just a tad extra cheese to the sauce, makes it creamier and cheesier. The way it browns on top at the end is just perfect. Love Giada.

Very easy and so delicious!!! I made a few changes just for my own taste. I added the whole cup of Fontina cheese to the bechamel sauce and instead of prosciutto I used bacon (so yummy! and topped it with 1/3 cup of Fontina cheese and the cubed butter. It came out perfect!
