I think Ina is one of the most consistently good cooks on the Food Network. Nonetheless, I found that this recipe as written is utterly tasteless. My husband had to hold me back from throwing it in the garbage.

It badly needs tweaking. Taste the pasta right before you put it in the pan. I added lots of worchestire sauce, paprika, and a little cayenne. It just didn't work. Not worth the calories.

First of all, I'm in college. I NEVER cook. My room mates had a meet and greet dinner thing so I thought mac and cheese would be easy- this was super easy. Not only that, it was so amazingly tasty! I couldn't find the gruyere cheese so I used some smokey somethin somethin. My room mates demanded an encore

This was so-so for me. I felt the use of Gruyere and Sharp Cheddar made the dish dryer in texture and flavor. Monterey Jack or Colby would have given this dish a silkier taste and texture. I did not bake it either. Glad I didn't. Have done much better than this recipe.

Delicious!! I made this for a Labor Day party since we had so many kids attending... I left the tomatoes out just because I know some of the kids don't like them. I was concerned that the flavor would be too grown up - but all of the kids, and all of the adults, LOVED it. I doubled the recipe and split it into two 9x13 pans. When I was adding the nutmeg I did wonder if it was too much - but the final product was perfect.

I honestly thought the nutmeg was way overpowering...and I only used the smallest amount.

Fabulous, fabulous, fabulous! Never has a recipe been so easy to prepare but tasted so good. We had company and they raved about it. It's a keeper (as are most of Ina's recipes.

just picked some nice tomatos from the garden, how to put a summer spin on an old winter comfort recipe. Even my son, the pickiest eater ever, ate every bite, even the tomatos. new staple for the swim team pre-meet pasta parties edging out my summer pesto. thanks ina, this is always a winner.

I am a true Ina fan and this recipe did not let me down! This is the ultimate adult version of mac n' cheese. My family loved it!

Wow! i've made this twice and it is so good. you can go wrong with this recipe. it's the best mac and cheese i've ever had. the texture of the cavatappi is perfect. and the tomatoes and breadcrumbs are delicious. the second time i made didn't have enough cheddar so i had to add blue cheese like in ina's grown up mac and cheese and it still came out good. Love!
