     I added some minced onions to the cheese soup mixture for extra flavor, but this turned out great! It was very creamy and cheesy! The whole family enjoyed it! - 5/1/08

     We followed the suggestion to try it with bacon bits, and boy is it good! I use 16 TBSP of Hormel Premium Real Crumbled Bacon and use Barilla Plus Pasta. It bumps up the calories to 321 per serving, but a little decadence every once in a while is a good thing! I'm going to try the tuna next! - 2/4/09

     Fantastic!! I snuck in whole wheat macaroni and my husband didn't notice. Will definately make it again! - 6/23/08

     It was definately worth making and I would make it again. I used fat free milk at it was still delicious. - 2/10/08

     Used whole wheat pasta, and added some sliced mushrooms, spinach, chopped onion, garlic, basil, oregano, hot pepper flakes, and an ounce or two extra of milk for additional creaminess. Stirred the cheese in with the other ingredients. Amazing, especially due to the onions and herbs. Easy. - 2/11/08

     Based off of other comments, I made a few changes. I added a little bit of light butter, some garlic, salt and pepper, and about a teaspoon of minced onion. I also used Campbell's fiesta nacho cheese soup. We thought it tasted very good and the leftovers even reheated good in the microwave. - 2/1/09

     I loved this! I made it with half shredded cheddar and half shredded mozzarella cheese though. I thought it was really good as is, and it was good heated up the next day too. My boyfriend thought something was missing, and added salt, pepper, garlic powder, and chicken to it. - 1/15/09

     This was just "ok" for my family. There was something missing, I agree. - 1/12/09

     I wish that I had used wheat pasta when making this. The taste came out great - a little too great though! I ended up eating way more than just one serving. I think this is a very eacy, tasty meal - but I wouldn't make it too often in fear of over eating! - 12/11/08

     DEElish. Have made this several times, and even my non-dieting room mate loves this. - 11/2/08
  • BFCRAFTY
     Hubby and I really enjoyed this although I did make some changes to it-wanting to make this more of a meal. I only used 4 oz of macaroni but added 12 oz package of broccoli/cauliflower and some chopped up chicken thighs-everything else the same. This was really good. Thanks for the recipe. - 10/28/08
  • _BRENDA_
     I love this recipe!! Its such a great comfort food! I added some italian breadcrumbs to the top for just a bit of crunchyness!!! YUM!!!! - 10/21/08
  • SANDY_67
     Enjoyed! Could not find 2% colby and jack. Settle for what I could find. Butter taste was the missing flavor for me. When I reheated left overs, I sprints the tops with I Can't Believe It's Not Butter! Spray 0 calories. Thanks for the cool recipe. - 10/17/08

     Almost perfect. Very good, but something was missing. The wife and I agreed the missing flavor was 'butter'. Though I haven't tried it yet, I'm going to try a little butter flavored extract next time. I did add some dry mustard and garlic salt and pre-heated/melted the milk, soup and cheese. - 10/17/08

     Made this for my family tonight, they are picky eaters and we all loved this!! - 10/2/08
  • RENEEP07
     We loved this!! We used fat free chddar cheese instead and it was incredible. Although, if you are planning to feed this to adults, plan on 4 filling servings, rather than 6. Will definately make this again! - 9/30/08

     Made this for dinner. Me and my boyfriend really liked it... I used cheddar cheese instead because that's the only cheese I have. - 8/16/08
