    I made this exactly by the recipe. My wife said it was "good", my 14 year old son said "Good but not cheesy enough." I agree with both.

    It may be because of my substitution, but the cheese was seperated and kind of gritty. The flavor was really good, but the texture was just not what I was looking for. I've been experimenting to find the perfect mac and cheese recipe. I guess the search is still on...but I will try this once more with the cottage cheese.

    This recipe has received rave reviews from my co-workers and friends! I do alter the recipe a little, I cut the onion down to 1/2 cup and omit the salt. Another recommendation is to use a crock pot instead of putting it in the oven. It seems to dry out a little in the oven and the crock pot it is much creamier!

    We have been going to Ruth's Diner for years and I finally made this at home. This recipe is just like the real thing! So good and rich, and calorie free of course! HA!

    To reduce saltiness, don't add salt when cooking macaroni, use unsalted butter, and cut salt in half to 1 tsp. The cheese adds enough. It does appear very soupy when mixed but it cooks down in the oven.

    Just made this for dinner and it turned out amazingly!!!! The sauted onions add the the most amazing oomph! Yes, cut down the salt. I used a half pint of heavy cream and eyeballed the milk(2% . But, I do live at 5500' ! In the topping I added Johnny's Garlic Spread mixture... YUMMMMMM!!!!!!!!

    I loved this recipe but found I needed to last minute add more topping! I used crispix cereal instead of breadcrumbs. It worked perfectly. Also, I left out the onions and basil. My husband is so picky! I am from SLC, Utah and live near Ruth's Diner. This recipe is pretty damn close to the real deal!

    I had to make a dish for a luncheon after a funeral, and what better comfort food is there but mac & cheese? I chose thie recipe because it comes from my place of birth - Salt Lake City.

    I followed the recipe exactly, except for cutting the salt in half. Oh, I did add one teaspoon of dry mustard, and a few dashes of chili powder. This mac & cheese has a smokey and warm flavor from the paprika. I will definitely make this again.
