  A Staple In My House

  Rated: 5 stars out of 5

  I make this recipe at least once a month and have for several years. I believe this is a variant on the original recipe I... used from the first Lady and Sons cookbook. A couple hints: Under cook your pasta. Throw it in the boiling water for no more than 5 minutes. We have to remember the pasta is going to continue to cook in the oven and will get mushy any other way. / I don't follow the recipe exactly when it comes to the sauce. I throw all the wet ingredients in and mix them together, then add the pasta to melt the butter, then finally add the cheese. I've found I personally get the best mixture this way. Remember too that some adjustments have to be made for those living in a dryer climate, or wetter for that matter. Savannah is very humid and it affects all our cooking and baking. I now live in Fl next to a river and am always having to tweak things because of humidity./ Add bacon, ham, shrimp, or shrimp and bacon in. The shrimp sounds odd but is really tasty. / HAVE fun for crying out loud. If you give up after one batch you'll never get good results. Some of my best recipes are stuff that I thought was ruined.

  Egg Bake

  Rated: 2 stars out of 5

  OK, I don't know who likes egg in their macaroni and cheese, apparently some people do, but I found it to be disgusting. It... reminded me of a breakfast casserole or something. The recipe turned out fine, it was simple to make, but I just didn't like the egg in it. Still searching for a good baked mac and cheese.Read more

  Not bad but not fantastic..

  Rated: 3 stars out of 5

  I put in 2 eggs instead of 3 but other wise made it just as the recipee said. It wasnt dry. It did have a "spereation"... issue. Not sure what happened. I put the cheese in it when it was hot. Then added the liquid mixture, as it got stirred together it started to seperate and "curdle". My husband said it had good flavor it was edible but not the best ever.Read more

  Great Southern Style Baked Mac and Cheese...Loved it!!

  Rated: 5 stars out of 5

  I have been looking for a good southern mac and cheese, I have tried many different ones but this is by far the best. Great... flavor.... was hit with the family...had company over and they loved it too. I reduced cooking time by about 10 minutes, just by watching it I decided it looked done and took it out of the oven. Was very moist...didn't dry out at all. This is like the real mac and cheese I remember from my childhood....good stuff!! This will be my new go to mac and cheese.Read more
