These would be great to take to work! They use real Kraft cheese and have these little packets of toppings like bread crumbs, bacon bits, or tortilla strips. Just follow the easy directions, microwave for 4.5 minutes and voila! You have a warm and hearty bowl of macaroni and cheese. I thought it was really convenient how everything you need to make these is included except for a little water, which you can get most places. Out of all of these, I like the white cheese ones best (Creamy Broccoli and White Cheddar.) It uses real cheese and there are five new flavors: Hearty Four Cheese, Sharp Cheddar & Bacon, White Cheddar, Creamy Broccoli, and Southwest Tortilla.
Homestyle kraft baked mac and cheese full size#
But I got to try out the new Kraft Homestyle Macaroni and Cheese which uses full size macaroni noodles and is made just for grown ups and reminds me more of my mom’s homemade. I love mac & cheese in any form really but I grew up eating my mom’s homemade macaroni and cheese and lots of box forms aren’t very similar.

In this case they have erred on the side of caution. In the end, the topping not only adds nothing noteworthy to the mac & cheese, but its very blandness ends up detracting from it. I love the texture that baked mac & cheese acquires - slightly crunchy but still moist - but I really think they could have done a much, much better job with this.

The mac & cheese is as cheesy and Middle American yummy as you could expect a Kraft Mac to be. Heck, if you've got cheese and panko on hand - and I usually do - there's really no reason to buy this stuff instead of the regular Kraft mac. It's not bad, but honestly I can take a box of the of the Classic (or the Deluxe, if I am feeling bougie) and make a tastier topping with things already in my kitchen. So how does it taste? Well, it tastes like normal Kraft mac & cheese, with a blandly crunchy topping.
But this one also offers an additional option: once you have the mac & cheese made as per above, you can then add the also-included magic bread crumb topping packet (and some grated cheese, not included) and bake the cheesy crust onto the mac. And in fact you can eat it at that point if you like. The prep steps are almost completely identical to "normal" mac and cheese: boil and drain the mac, add milk, butter, the mysterious contents of the included foil packets, stir.

Well, hold on just a second! Yes, this is Mac & Cheese, but this version seems to be aimed more at adults. Yes, yes, I know - once again, it seems that Gigi is hitting the kiddie food.
