Although I try hard not to make major changes to recipes that I'm gonna review, perhaps I did just that with this one! I substituted cream of celery soup for the mushroom kind AND then, for the last 10 minutes of oven time, I sprinkled 3 diced up mushrooms over the top, & I thought IT WAS JUST GREAT! Of course, then there was no mystery as to what gave the unusual flavor, but still . . . Anyway, this was yet another mac & cheese supper for a neighbor couple of mine that I cook for, & they think my cooking is wonderful, so . . .
