    This recipe was delicious and fairly easy. I mixed all ingredients (except potatoes) before adding the potatoes as I wanted to make sure that the cheese evenly melted in the sauce. I will definitely make this recipe again. - 4/9/12

    We enjoy food that's a little zippier so on top of great base recipe I added Tony's Seasoning and onion powder. Used (more than 1/4 tsp) coarse cracked black pepper for stronger flavor. - 11/12/10

    Absolutely awesome! It's been a long time since I made these from scratch and this recipe was perfect!! Super rich, creamy and cheesy! I did add 3 cloves of garlic, since we LOVE garlic. - 6/10/16

    Great recipe-shared with guests today! Made some changes: used salt substitute instead of salt, inc. cheese to 2 cups (to use pkg), and used fresh garlic. Mixed ingredients for sauce as others have advised. Please beware that salt from the original recipe is not counted in the sodium info listed. - 12/30/12

    This recipe is fantastic. I made it just like it said except my pepper came out too fast; so I probably had about a tsp of pepper, but it still was great!!! - 12/29/12

    Very good! I mixed the cheese and spices in with the roux before adding the potatoes (like a more traditional cheese sauce). I also microwaved the potatoes (after slicing) for five minutes to reduce the cooking time. - 1/3/11
