    I have always thought I would struggle with authentic Italian meals, and for the most part that is true. This recipe is just another example showing how I don't have the level of expertise required to master Italian dishes. It started out well, making the mac and cheese from the box according to those directions (I suspect this was easy because it was the 'American cuisine' part, which I am very good with. I used the cheapest breadcrumbs I could find, but the dish didn't taste Italian. I believe Italian style butter would have helped, but I can't be sure - I'm far out of my league when cooking at this caliber. Anyway, I can tell I didn't prepare it right when I couldn't stand it and fed it to the dog. The give away was when the threw up after just smelling the dish. Next time, I'm just going to order mac and cheese 'Italian style' at the KFC drive-thru, and let the masters handle this one!

    This recipe, along with "Mexican style Mac and cheese" are a joke. How does throwing "italian bread crumbs" make it "italian style"? It would not surprise me one bit if she threw in curry powder and calls "indian style". I love the concept of her show, but her recipes do not deliver.
