I made this a few nights ago for my fiance, best friend, and I. We all LOVED it! It's definitely the best mac & cheese I've ever had and it was simple to make also..can't wait to have it again!

Add a little grated onion to taste, and can add some fresh sliced mushrooms also.

a little to "fake cheese sauce" tasting for my tastes. Good idea, though. Maybe next time i would try brocolli with no cheese sauce and make it with 100% real grated cheddar.
