Finally, someone has agreed with me to NOT put creamy mac and cheese into the oven. It dries out the mixture and tastes terrible. I can understand a minute or two under the broiler to get that cheese browned, but I don't even do that! I just love your recipe (it's a bit different from mine) and can't wait to try it. Thanks!
