I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my macaroni turned out mushy. I think I might have overcooked it.

I thought this was just okay. The flavors didn't really come together for me. I might try it again with some different seasonings.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my macaroni turned out dry and bland. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.

Not a fan. The texture was off and it was too salty for my taste.
