    • Reviews

  • “I liked that it was all made on top of the stove and I did not have to bake it.I am only giving it 3 stars because I thought it was just too bland.I followed instructionsto a tee. Will add some velveeta cheese to add more flavor to present batch.I will make again, and add more flavorable cheese.”

  • “I just got done eating this Mac and cheese.It was wonderful I was not sure about the mustard because I do not like spicy stuff.The mustard gave it a nice flavor but it was just a hint of flavor. I will be making this again.”

  • “This is so creamy and cheesey!The cheese combination is terrific and I really loved the two mustards in there.The mustards give a great flavor but it’s not overwhelmingly “mustardy.”I used fiore (flower-shaped) pasta.A real hit with the kiddos.Thanx for sharing this.Will certainly make this again!”
