You can make this dish two ways, baked or unbaked. Since I've only been baking dishes (except for the ice cream), I'll mainly post about the baked one, but feel free to skip out on the baking steps.
The garlic powder is pretty strong at first so if you don't want to bake this, then half the powder.
The breadcrumbs are very crucial because it doesn't let the sauce go in the oven. Make sure the breadcrumbs are covering the whole casserole pan.
This tastes so fancy and yummy, I don't think anyone would resist this mac and cheese bake!
