My mom used to make a recipe that is similar to this when we were kids. The smell and the taste of this tomato mac & cheese brings back wonderful memories... Adapted from The Complete Canadian Diabetes Cookbook.

This was okay but not nearly saucy enough for me, The tomato mixture had great flavour though & my 19 mth old daughter ate a little which was a bonus as she's not eating much these days. If I make this again I will be making a cheese sauce to mix through the macaroni before baking.

    This is a great mac-n-cheese recipe with the added bonus of my favorite veggie...tomato! After reading the previous review I decrease the pasta to a 12 oz. box of whole wheat penne, increased the cheese to 3/4 lb, used 2 14.5 oz. cans of Italian-style diced tomatoes and kept all the other ingredients the same. Great comfort food! Thanks for posting, Redsie!

    Very tasty. I loved the tomato mixture; it really makes this recipe special. The macaroni part was a bit dry, though, and not very cheesey. I definitely will make this again, but I think I'd make a cheese sauce to mix with the noodles. Thanx for the recipe!
