This recipe was a disaster! The cheese sauce was clumpy and the pumpkin flavor was overpowering.

The pumpkin flavor was a bit too strong for me. I think I would have liked it better with less pumpkin.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it better with a sharper cheddar cheese.
