This is a wholesome southern style dish rich on satisfaction with a measure less fat than traditional mac and cheese. My daughter Genesis loves it and I don't mind giving her seconds. Granted, I have a full on Southern Style Macaroni and Cheese, but I save that recipe for special occasions and family gatherings where we can share the love and the fat! Seconds won't be an issue because the it will disappear the first time around!
