Based on other's reviews I too left out the breadcrumbs and I didn't bother to bake it - just did it on the stove top. I used the Barilla Plus macaroni for more fiber. It still tasted awesome! - 10/4/10

I was shocked at how yummy this was! I think next time I'll use less bread crumbs though :) It wasn't as good reheated, but definitely will eat it again!! - 12/31/08

This was really awesome! I have made many versions of macaroni & cheese, and this was really creamy and flavorful. The sauce texture was perfect, and this is something I'll definitely make again. I omitted the breadcrumb topping, and instead, topped it with a light sprinkling of parmesan. Yummy! - 11/3/08
