I agree that this was dry and reducing the pasta would be a good remedy. Maybe also covering in the oven or increasing the milk a bit. I used Barilla Plus elbows, couldn't tell that they weren't regular pasta. Pureed my roasted butternut squash in the food processor with the milk. Added some powered mustard, garlic power, and cayenne pepper for more kick. I loved the overall flavor, might even add more of those spices next time. Husband likes "tuna mac" so maybe I'll try it again with reduced pasta, tuna, and peas & carrots added. Reheating the leftovers with a bit of milk or possible chicken broth added might work, too. Still have 2 butternut squashes to use up, LOL!

Good flavor, but dry. Double up the sauce and cut back on pasta. Otherwise good. Don't know if I'll give it another go or not.

Great recipe! I made a few substitutions. I used Barilla plus elbows and frozen butternut squash. I also used 1/2 cup Mexican kraft 2% shredded, and the rest Naturally slender American cheese. The butternut squash gives the pasta that kraft mac and cheese color for kids who care. You would never know that there is squash in this, and the texture ends up nice and thick. I will be making this again! Delicious

I thought that I would give this recipe a try. Never had Butternut squash nor used Yogurt in a mac and cheese recipe. The results were great and the food was tasty. It does not have that heavy feeling like the old recipes. Has a somewhat sweet little taste probably due to the yogurt. Only thing I did different was used regular pasta because I don't like the taste of wheat pasta but still, everything turned out excellent.
