I forgot to say add milk to mine before the gruyere. Obviously you need to add milk/cream/evap milk whatever.

- boil noodles
- put in pot with cheese of choice (I like to use at least 3 or 4 different kinds) and simmer until cheese is melted
- cook some bacon and chop it up then put that in the pot
- spoon mixture into baking dish then top with mixture of half parm/half Panko
- bake at 350 until the top is crispy

Um...this post has a lot of fail to it. Not worth the effort for homemade? I mean what effort is it?
Nope, no fail, to do it any better than the stuff in a box takes lots of time, effort, and costs in good ingredients. Even with all the effort, it may only be a marginal improvement.

I almost always have portions of various cheeses around from other recipes/snacking so it's almost always at very little cost for me.
And I don't know of a time that I haven't fixed it from scratch and it wasn't better then the box.
What kind of mac and cheese are you making that takes THAT much time?

I just cooked a great one tonight. Tastes exactly like the mac and cheese from Piccadilly!
2 1/2 cups elbow macaroni
1/4 cup unsalted butter
1/2 cup all purpose flour
2 1/4 cups milk, warmed
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 eggs
2 cups grated extra sharp cheddar cheese
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Cook macaroni according to package directions and drain.
Heat butter in a small saucepan over medium low heat. Stir in flour and cook 1 minute. Use a whisk and add milk, stirring constantly, until sauce thickens. Add salt and pepper.
Beat eggs slightly and add small amount of sauce to eggs and then add remaining egg mixture to sauce. Set aside 1/3 cup grated cheese for top.
Add one third macaroni to a buttered 2 quart casserole, alternating layers of macaroni and cheese. Pour sauce all over and add reserved cheese.
Bake 25 to 30 minutes and serve.
I cooked it for 45 min in the oven so the cheese on top would start to brown a little and get crunchy in the corners.
Tastes great!

That's pretty funny! The point is that I would rather spend prep time on something that can't be found in a box. IMO the difference between great Mac and cheese and decent Mac and cheese isn't that great. Come on, show some love to the almighty velveeta!
(Pretty sure no one in my Cajun heritage cares about Mac and cheese)
Carry on.
