Rated 4 out of 5 by from Pretty dang good I am obsessed with Mac and cheese and I had to try this out. I was not disappointed. It was very flavorful. The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is because I’m not good at cooking so this was a bit difficult for me.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Perfect kick to bland pasta I tried this to kick up our holiday family dinners. My daughter prefers the shells to elbow pasta and it substitutes perfectly. I will say with shells, it soaks up the creaminess so having an extra creamy recipe like this one is a necessity. We also substituted white cheddar for yellow and have tried parmesan and other cheeses as well and we found it makes no difference, still taste great. It's the perfect amount of ranch, enough for a kick, but not so much to make it taste like you're licking a ranch salt block. Great balance that will help you please your picky eaters.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Double the ranch seasoning and you’ll love it! Who doesn’t love Mac and cheese?! I double the ranch seasoning to 4 Tbsps and it gave this dish the extra kick I was looking for.
