Western Macaroni and Cheese Dinner image

Can't remember if I got this off the Mac 'N Cheese box or where. It's a great way to change up plain old mac 'N cheese. Comfort food! If you have leftover fresh broccoli stems, chop them up and drop them in the boiling water with the noodles. I adjusted the recipe a bit.

This recipe was a waste of time. The macaroni was overcooked and the sauce was bland.

I wasn't impressed with this recipe. The sauce was too runny and the breadcrumb topping was too dry.

I found this recipe to be a bit too rich for my taste. The sauce was very heavy, and the breadcrumb topping was overpowering.

This macaroni and cheese was just okay. The sauce was a little bland, and the breadcrumb topping was too dry.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover macaroni. I added some cooked chicken and vegetables, and it was a delicious and easy weeknight meal.
