Country Style Macaroni and Cheese image

I have been making this recipe since my son was small, it's also great made with rotini (corkscrew) pasta ---prep time does not include cooking the macaroni, you may omit the breadcrumb topping if desired.

This was a little too cheesy for my taste. I think I would use less cheese next time.

This was delicious! I used a sharp cheddar cheese and it gave the macaroni and cheese a nice tang. I also added some cooked bacon and it was a great addition.
