I'm a vegetarian, so I used vegetable broth in this recipe instead of chicken broth. It was still very good!

I'm allergic to milk, so I used almond milk in this recipe. It turned out great!

This macaroni and cheese is way too cheesy. I could barely eat it.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my macaroni and cheese turned out runny. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This macaroni and cheese is a bit bland. I would add more salt and pepper next time.

This macaroni and cheese is the best I've ever had! It's so creamy and cheesy, and the pasta is cooked perfectly. I will definitely be making this again and again.
