PERFECT. I made them as stated except I used Italian bread crumbs. I love Italian. I made some with bacon and some without. They weren't too bready. The bacon was fully cooked....the mac and cheese was awesome. Everyone in my family raved about them. My inlaws are visiting and they loved them too. It was wonderful. Thank you Paula Deen for a wonderful recipe. It is OK to eat something a little unhealthy once in awhile. No it's not something to eat every single day but you need to enjoy life and splurge now and then.
