This mac and cheese was easy to make and turned out great! I used a combination of sharp cheddar and mozzarella cheese, and it was so creamy and flavorful. I'll definitely be making this again.

This mac and cheese was a bit too cheesy for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll use a milder cheese, like mozzarella.
