It istn't creamy and smooth like higher-fat macaroni and cheese, but considering how lowfat it is, it's pretty darn good. I used lowfat cheddar and mozzarella cheeses. I used my immersion blender to blend the flour and milk together, since without butter, the two just don't combine well. I did add the parsley mentioned in step nine and some extra Dijon. Great if you're dieting and crave mac & cheese! Thanx for posting.
