The bacon added a little savory taste and extra indulgence to the recipe. The garnish of scallions and sour cream were not needed for this, but I ended up mixing in the sour cream (after I tried it first) to the dish to make it super creamy. This dish also worked out great when put into a 9-by-9-inch pan, topped with bread crumbs, and reheated in the oven for an easy make-ahead dinner. The bacon was very easy to make and there were no issues with getting the cheese sauce to come together. It was so easy to make, in fact, that I think it will be fun to try different cheeses and add-ins to spice it up a little bit. I did use store-brand corkscrew pasta instead of the pasta specified, and it worked out great. This dish is going to become a staple at my house because we generally have all these ingredients at home and the recipe was so easy to follow. [Annie Leslie] This recipe was so rich and creamy!

Who knew such few ingredients and uncomplicated techniques would render something truly memorable? I kept this simple and went with the original version with no variations. I figured that aside from myself, the next best person to taste this recipe would be my mother. We kids grew up on my mother's macaroni and cheese, so with a nervous phone call I invited her to join me for dinner. Upon first bite her eyebrows raised as she turned and looked to me, my heart raced. "This is some really good mac 'n cheese." Whew, I got mothers stamp of approval as I was already reveling in the rich creaminess and the bacon goodness. With ease this will most certainly be my go to mac 'n cheese recipe from now on! Can't wait to try this with a buttered crumb crust, just like mom's. [Alexander Cowan] This was probably the best macaroni and cheese I’ve ever made.

In fact, it took longer to cook the pasta then it did to make the sauce. This dish is so rich, that small portions are more than filling. The bacon adds a nice meaty, smoky touch. Forget the stuff in the blue box! [Trista Crossley] This macaroni and cheese recipe came together quickly and easily, with ingredients that were already on hand.
