8/04/08 Definitely a hit with my boyfriend and I. We like more of a bite to our dishes so we added Parmesan cheese and Asiago cheese to the mix. UPDATE: 2/24/09 Made it again and had less sour cream, but added green onions. Wonderful!
Delicious! We made this tonight with salisbury steaks for Independence Day. It is more of a casserole and is very easy to make. We will definitely keep this one handy.
Great Mac&Cheese! This is real man food.....not your usual "out of the box" kiddy stuff!
Not your typical mac and cheese. It is more casserole like than creamy mac & cheese.
I liked the sour cream. I did a few things different. My husband likes meatballs so I made them small w/ Italian seasoning and added them. I sliced some onions really thin and sauteed them w/ garlic. All I had was mild cheddar cheese but I think I'd have preferred the sharp ceddar. The sauce part really turned out good. This recipe is a keeper. Thanks!

What does putting an egg in mac and cheese do?

The egg will make the Mac and Cheese smoother and creamier. I have tried this recipe with and without adding the egg and it does affect the texture of the final recipe. In a medium bowl, beat one egg. Warm the egg by drizzling in, very slowly, 2-3 Tablespoons of the thickened milk mixture.
