With its creamy consistency and two different cheeses, this entree captures the essence of comfort food. But here's the kicker-it's been slimmed down for you so you can enjoy it without over indulging. Darcie Zerniak - Ontario, New York

This is a keeper. I cut the recipe in half since it's just hubby and me and this will be made again and again. Thanks for the recipe.

This was delicious! I doubled the noodles, added some cooked ham pieces, and baked it for about half the time. My only complaint is it is a little thick--I'll either cut down on the flour or use more broth. But I will be wanting this again, for sure. :)

Way too much salt! Hate velveta, tasted like high school cafeteria mac and cheese.

I found that heating the milk and broth before adding it to the flour/butter mixture makes for a smoother sauce.

I looked at the other reviews and decided to use 3 cups of uncooked elbows instead of 2. It made this recipe perfect! It was very good.

Use Mexican-flavored Velveeta cheese...My husband said that we were NOT to make this for grandchildren, or they would be visiting all of the time. It's wonderful!!!!

Great flavor and simple to make. The best thing it is all made with fat free cheeses and doesn't taste like it at all.
