This is a great base recipe! I had a lot of brie I needed to use up and wasn't really sure where to start with a brie mac. I ended up only having almond milk in the fridge so I used that in place of the milks. Sautéed some garlic and onion for the sauce and made homemade bread crumbs with tarragon. Last alteration I used shell noodles. I'm very pleased with how it all turned out!

I love brie and I love mac and cheese, so naturally I wanted to try this. I really enjoyed it, but the brie does make this a bit bland. Overall, you really can't taste the brie, it is more like a nice creamy noodle dish. The best part is the cracker topping. This really makes it taste awesome. I will use cracker crumbs instead of breadcrumbs when I make mac n cheese in the future, tastes really rich and decadently buttery! If I make this again I will probably reduce the amount of brie and add a little cheddar, something with a bolder taste.

What can I say about myself that hasn't already been mentioned in the police reports? Just kidding! I'm a single guy who loves to cook! Good thing, or I'd starve or go broke eating out! I love to read, horror and mysteries are my favorite.
Love music, (except rap) and I'm a huge Green Bay Packer Fan!
