I have made this too many times to count and it is awesome every time! I doubled the recipe for a large family gathering. My niece called it “adult Mac and Cheese” which coming from her is a huge compliment. I did make the recipe ahead of time and it heated up perfectly. Love it with the added spinach. My sister has made it for her family. She says she is going to make without the ham and serve it as a side dish. Genius!

I was looking for a new recipe last night. After reading reviews/comments, I decided to try this recipe. It was a huge hit! I did add fresh spinach and doubled the amount of cheese, as I love cheese! I used the recommended amount of cheese for the sauce but added the extra cheese to the top of the casserole. I cannot wait to have it for leftovers. Excited that it can be made ahead of time. Will be a great to have prepared when the kids/grandkids visit. Definitely a keeper recipe!

We loved this. We tried to make it a little lighter by using fat free sour cream, substituting chicken broth for the cream and adding some vegetables (sautéed mushroom and a bit of kale). I know it was different from the original, but we really enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing this recipe!

This was pretty good, although I felt like it needed a leetle more sauce!

I can’t wait to make this for family gatherings – delicious, easy, and makes SO MUCH food. We had leftovers…for a couple days, haha

So easy and good. Didn’t change a thing in the recipe and it turned out perfectly. I like the idea of adding spinach. Will try that next time. I also used jarred roasted red peppers and didn’t think there was anything wrong with those.

I used heavy whipping cream instead of the half & half. I stirred in a bag of fresh spinach for added fiber.

Simple but delicious recipe! I added some mushrooms and thought that they made a great addition.

A hit with the family. I cut some fat by using lower fat dairy but it still had all the creaminess of comfort food.
