This mac and cheese was delicious! The sausage added a nice savory flavor and the shells were cooked perfectly. I will definitely be making this again.

I thought this dish was just okay. The sausage was a bit dry and the cheese sauce was a little bland. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll use less cheese or a different type of sausage.
