@YouGoGirl1 Thank you for posting the recipe.

I want to try it. It sounds so easy compared to the recipe I have been using for years.

The recipe I had used was similar. The difference is the Blue Willow Inn calls for sour cream and egg. And my recipe calls for 4 cups of milk.

I can't wait to try this recipe and compare.

Mac & Cheese is one of my top three favorite dishes. I could eat it every day! I would substitute nonfat plain yogurt for the sour cream in this recipe. Every fat gram saved helps a little!!

@whatsmyname, That would be a great sub.

Just pass on by if the ingredients are not favorable to you.

Just pass on by if you DON'T like my comments. EASY PEASY.

Many of us would prefer that is what YOU do @layla2450

MANY posters have left these boards who took the time to share their favorite recipes. They were hurt and tired of having their recipes picked apart by unnecessary comments.

I MISS those posters and feel bad they were hurt and left.

It's interesting...if you type in Blue Willow Inn mac and cheese, the Inn has a Face Book post with a recipe entirely different than this one. The FB recipe is not one I would make...it uses Cheese Whiz...which is not something I would use. Although, I have had great casseroles my stepmother made using Cheese Whiz....

The recipe posted from op does have a lot of cheese and butter, but it also has a lot of pasta. 16 oz of dry pasta is a LOT of pasta. Ina Garten uses 20 ounces of cheese, per 16 oz of pasta, in one of her mac and cheese recipes.

This is at least 8 servings of mac and cheese. Mac and cheese is not an every day food at my house.
@RollTide2008
8 sevings seems about right. When I make pasta dishes I weigh out 2 oz of dry pasta per serving.

I made mac and cheese yesterday. I weighed out 8 ounces of pasta which according to the package was 4 servings. It served 6 people and had a generous spoonful leftover for someone's lunch this week. Along side a roasted chicken with vegetables and a green salad, it was fairly sensible meal.

Its called moderation. Having a serving for a meal will not give anyone a heart attack. Maybe eating the whole bowl would be detrimental to your health.

I did make this recipe and have to say---not the best mac n cheese I have ever tasted. I did follow the recipe-- but only made half the recipe, just in case it failed--less to toss out--but it needed more seasoning and wasn't very creamy despite all the fat in it --was more fatty than creamy. But now I know and won't make it again.
