Creamy Stove Top Macaroni and Cheese image

My family's favorite macaroni and cheese - cooked on top of the stove rather than baked! It's flavor is enhanced by the addition of prepared mustard. Little children love it because it's so creamy and cheese-y. For potlucks, make ahead and reheat in microwave, stirring, just before carrying to dinner.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but this macaroni and cheese was not good. The sauce was bland and the pasta was mushy.

This recipe was a fail. The sauce was too thick and the pasta was overcooked.

This was my first time making macaroni and cheese from scratch, and it turned out great! The sauce was smooth and creamy, and the pasta was cooked perfectly. I added some chopped bacon and peas to mine, and it was delicious.

This macaroni and cheese recipe is a keeper! It's so creamy and cheesy, and the perfect comfort food. I loved that it was made on the stovetop, so I didn't have to heat up my oven. I will definitely be making this again and again.
