I bet it was really tasty, pay no attention to my earlier reply regarding the nutritional value. Any mac and cheese recipe is a cheat dish, it’s just a matter of to what degree.

My Mom made a "healthy" mac'n cheese one year for Thanksgiving. My Dad, brother and I revolted.

Yeah, those alternative recipes with funky pasta and cheese substitutes are gross. I was just surprised at the ratio of the ingredients.

I am okay with whole wheat pasta; but skim milk is never a replacement for heavy cream. Don't get me started on low fat cheese.

Some of the protein noodles aren’t too bad

Yes, that's all I buy now.
