I used this recipe to make my first ever homemade mac and cheese. I have to say, it was quite good. I think it needed a little more flavor, but I think I just didn't mix the ingredients well enough. Like I said this was my first try, and so I wasn't sure how to get the liquid/spice mixture to be "smooth", so I admit mine was a little lumpy, but again, I think that was just my fault. I will make it again, and gain some experience and I think this will become a family favorite... whenever I have a family. I'm a single 24 year old college student teaching myself to cook/cook better.
