This looks So good! I'm going to try that this week!

That is interesting adding sugar to this recipe. I've never done that. Can you taste it?

Jenn, The sugar gives the dish a bit of sweet, but not too much! It's a southern thing -- at least that's the way they fix macaroni around here!

This is different than my mac and cheese, might have to give this one a try. One of the ultimate comfort foods. I add something unusual to mine, a squirt of mustard to the sauce. It zips the mac and cheese up a bit. Thanks so much for sharing this. ~ Abby
