Made this tonight. Made it as directed, which does have many steps, however, it was WAY healthier than other mac and cheese. The consistency matches good mac and cheese but the flavor is less cheesy flavor. However, for my 2 year old, she didn't realize it was any different. she ate it up because it looked just like mac and cheese. Definitely would make again!
Creamy, Light Macaroni and Cheese

The problem with this recipe is that there just isn't enough fat to make it a satisfying Mac and Cheese. That is not to say you need to go all Paula Deen on it! I added 3 tblsps half and half and 1 tblsp butter to the butternut squash mixture. This changed the calories from 390 to about 550 per serving. Still much less than the 930 for a full fat mac and cheese, and the flavor was wonderful and satisfying! Will definitely make again.

We thought this was good! It'd be pretty easy if you had pre-cut butternut and pre-shredded cheese (for at least some of the cheese). The flavor was great!
lhelton1230 Posted: 08/28/11
This was very very good! I made it for our church picnic and it was gone almost before I could get any. I was shocked at how a sauce with no cheese tasted so much like cheese sauce before I added all the cheeses! It was very good, I gave it 4 stars because I like my mac and cheese a little saucier and this was not very saucy, but it was still delicious and although there are a lot of steps it is well worth the effort!
Susan1947 Posted: 09/08/11
I agree with trajax!!!! My daughter-in-law and I made this together and each served it at our own homes. Both her family and we agree (6 people) that this not rich and creamy!!! It was very bland tasting, expensive to make, and very dry! While we all appreciated having a healthy sauce, it definitly needed some fat to make it richer, and something to make it creamy. I will stick with my nacho and 4 cheese Mac and cheese recipes from BA with my nonfat subs. They are MUCH better!!!
Txajax Posted: 09/02/11
I was very disappointed with this recipe. It was very expensive to make and came out extremely dry. What a waste of money.
Dontdietliveit Posted: 08/26/11
Love Cooking Light recipes, don't love this one! I found this to be really dry and not very tasty. For the amount of dishes dirtied, money spent on expensive cheeses (around $20), and effort that went into grating and chopping, this was not worth the effort. I think next time I will make real macaroni and cheese and eat a smaller serving.
Topspin23 Posted: 08/27/11
We thought this was very good! You would not even know there was butternut squash in it. A little involved to make, but well worth the effort. Great comfort food for the fall.
amanda1986 Posted: 08/29/11
This recipe was very good. However, it did take a very long time to put together and I had a ton of dishes to wash when it was all done. Next time I will make a double batch and freeze some. I added a little bit of nutmeg and it made it taste a little more fallish... would be great with a crisp salad with apples and walnuts in it and some crusty bread.
NicoleCooks Posted: 08/28/11
Made this tonight and I absolutely loved it. Prepared it exactly as directed, although I don't have a blender so the process took a little longer. I also made a regular mac and cheese, just in case this recipe didn't come out so good - I don't like butternut squash on its own, and everyone preferred the cooking light recipe. It took me a while to prepare, two hours from start to finish, but I think it would be shorter a second time around now that I know the recipe better. Definitely worth the time
EllenDeller Posted: 10/03/11
Made for a potluck and everyone loved it, but I made these important changes: cook only 12 oz. pasta & drain. Use same pot to simmer pre-cut and peeled squash (found it in Walmart's produce dept.) in stock, garlic, bay leaf and 1 2/3 cups milk with cover on the pot, and let cool. Remove bay leaf and blend. Then use same pot to mix up with a 2 cup bag of store-brand Italian cheese. Mix in dried Italian seasoning and lemon-pepper, dash of ground red pepper, then turn into baking pan and top with panko and store-brand parmesan. Then MOST IMPORTANT--cover and bake. It was not dry at all because I increased milk and decreased pasta, simmered squash with cover on, and baked with cover on. Delicious!
Kheath Posted: 09/08/11
This is so yummy!! I have been looking for a rich creamy mac and cheese, and this one hits the mark. I love the "grown up" cheese flavor, and the kids just think it is delicious!! I love that it has the butternut squash in it!!!
amoudakas Posted: 09/08/11
I was skeptical but thought the reduction in calories was definitely a worthwhile reason to at least give this a shot. The only real modification I made was using Swiss instead of Gruyere simply because I have found that in recipes like this, swiss works just fine as a cheaper alternative to gruyere. Additionally, I did add slightly more milk than it called for, but no more than maybe 1/2 cup. As far as personal touches, I did add some peas and crabmeat to the dish to make it more of a main course rather than a side dish. The flavor of the sauce was truly outstanding and while it isn't overwhelmingly cheesy, I love the nuttiness of the squash and swiss cheese. Super good and it sure doesn't taste like it is missing any of those calories. We will most certainly be making the dish again. Oh and I did omit the parsley because I just don't care for it on anything.
trillian Posted: 09/27/11
Seriously amazing. And you don't feel guilty eating mac n cheese for dinner because there is an entire butternut squash hidden in there. Don't complicate it! I used 10 ounces of misc cheeses, threw it right in with the squash after cooking and blended with an immersion blender, topped with uncooked panko, and broiled for a couple minutes to crisp it up. Perfection. It only took about a half hour.
misulli Posted: 08/26/11
My husband seriously had a take-out menu at the ready when I started making this. He was sure it would be awful. He took one bite and admitted how wrong he was. It was outstanding! I NEVER would have taken this recipe to be lower in fat and calories. Flavor was amazing and consistency was even better.
jonyc28 Posted: 09/10/11
This is a great recipe, but I agree with some of the other reviews - it is expensive to buy all the cheeses and it does get very dry. However, I've learned that many Cooking Light pasta recipes dry out while baking, so I've learned to add more milk and Greek yogurt to counteract that. Also, the time to prepare is always longer than the recipe says, in this case, due to the butternut squash which is really hard to peel and cut.
ArleneLynn Posted: 09/10/11
I tasted this before I put it in the oven and it was incredible. I should have stopped there. When it was done baking, it was dry and there was no sauce left. I will try this again without baking it. The flavors were great other than the dryness.
PotterRach Posted: 09/03/11
My family was less than impressed to say the least. My picky eater refused to eat it flat out and even my trash compactor-child didn't want anything to do with it after a couple bites. My guy on the other hand ate it and he doesn't dig mac n cheese. But that might have just been either his good manners, or the bacon and rotisserie chicken garnish I added. Either way, won't be venturing this road again.
xani79 Posted: 09/19/11
This was a big hit at my house. I used whole milk b/c it was all I had, and used 9 oz of trader joe's cheddar-gruyere blend in place of the gruyere and romano cheeses. Added a bay leaf and some nutmeg to the sauce. I was really worried during the final assembly b/c it seemed so WET-- i thought the whole thing would still be soupy after baking, but it firmed up nicely. 9 year old had NO idea it contained squash, and even asked to take leftovers to school today!
LKGmom Posted: 09/02/11
A total hit. Yes it was a little involved but worth it to make a mac and cheese that is a bit healthier. made the night before and heated up for dinner in the microwave and it was excellent!
Carrsm Posted: 08/27/11
Lovely Mac and Cheese! Although my 4 and 9 year old weren't impressed, the cheeses may be a bit strong for some kids. As adults, both, my husband and I were impressed!
etonmymind Posted: 10/02/11
I am really amazed at the number of negative reviews on this! Such a delicious, light alternative to traditional, southern-style homemade mac n cheese. It was a bit labor intensive but not bad considering we got two meals out of it (two adults and three children). The taste is subtle and mature, like grown up kid food. You would never guess there was so much squash in there! We used whole wheat penne instead of cavatappi, and a fresh 3 cheese blend (Parmesan, Romano, Asiago) in lieu of the Parmigiano-Reggiano. I also shortened the baking time to 15 minutes and found it quite adequate (watch for the bubbling, just as the recipe said, and you won't over bake it). Make sure you brown the panko well for an extra little taste infusion. My kids scarfed this up, and we'll be adding it to our rotation. No, it doesn't taste like the boxed stuff--it's better!
phuber Posted: 08/31/11
Super easy-if you boil the pasta first (you only need to cook it about half the time the package says since they will keep cooking in the oven), then cook the squash in the same pot and use an immersion blender, you've got hardly any dishes. Substituted a minced shallot for the garlic, and used a mix of romano and fontina cheese and a little less pasta than it called for to keep it saucier. I also nixed the topping and mixed in some steamed broccoli at the end. Yum!
BrendaS78 Posted: 09/11/11
I had some leftover squash from a different recipe and decided it was a good excuse to try this recipe. I had a bit of a head start on it, since my squash was already, well, squashed. I still added the milk, broth, etc. I did cook the noodles ahead of time as directed. I did cut corners money wise by choosing other cheeses. I chose swiss, asiago, and mozzarella. I cooked everything in my dutch oven and then used my immersion blender to create the sauce consistency. Because people were indicating the final product was dry, I decided to add the cooked noodles to my dutch oven and add the cooked panko on top. It's been my experience in the past that if mac and cheese is baked in a dish that is too shallow it can dry out quicker. Not sure if there is any real science to it, however I baked it in the oven as directed and it came out gooey. So, the method seems to have been successful.
FitGrandma Posted: 08/30/11
Fantastic. I used an immersion blender. Fewer dishes to wash. I also used Dreamfield pasta which is very low in carbs. It made a big hit at my house.
dcdori Posted: 09/07/11
I followed the recipe exactly, and got mac and cheese with very little sauce, and too much pasta. The sauce was tasty by itself, but once baked, the dish was dry and neither cheesy or gooey. The pasta was also overcooked. Next time I'd undercook it in the boiling water some before baking, and cut the amount of pasta way down for that amount of sauce. Disappointing, and not worth even the reduced calorie count.
KathrynNC Posted: 08/28/11
This recipes has some potential. For a very "cheddar" color, but without the cheddar cheese flavor, it was somewhat odd. If I try this again, I will substitute sharp cheddar for the gruyere and add a bit more cheese. Though I may just take the suggestion of a previous reviewer and make my usual recipe but commit myself to only a small portion size.
Juwell Posted: 09/09/11
love, love love this recipe! really good and totally satisfies a mac-n-cheese craving! i would add a little extra garlic and next time i may experiment with some light cheddar or smoked cheeses - but, it's excellent as is!
katie1124 Posted: 09/26/11
my boyfriend and i really liked this recipe- you can't taste the sqaush at all, just a nice mellow nutty flavor. i might add a bit more milk in the beginning stages, since after the pasta went in the oven it came out a bit drier than i would have liked. otherwise though, will definitely make again!
K92inVA Posted: 09/06/11
This was fabulous - everyone enjoyed it! Very creamy - not dry, but we only used about 3/4 lb. of pasta. Will definitely make it again!
kleblanc9 Posted: 08/30/11
Delicious! I added 1.5 cups of frozen peas when mixing the cooked pasta with the cheese mixture.
kate5644 Posted: 09/19/11
I always love my cooking light recipes. But yikes, this was pretty terrible. And it was very expensive to make. My partner and I HATE to waste food. We try hard to eat everything we bring into our home. We got through one serving each, and tried to force feed ourselves another serving the next day, but just couldn't even get through one bite. I threw away the rest. It was really that bad. I would skip this one and move onto another cooking light recipe.
whitsera Posted: 08/31/11
I loved this! I too was surprised at how the sauce tasted so buttery and cheesy even before I put the cheese in. It did take a while to prepare but I finished it in an hour. I did a few steps simultaneously and that sped up the time. Mine was saucy enough. I will make it again!
alto63 Posted: 09/10/11
This does not taste like a light recipe-it was creamy and delicious. The combination of cheeses is very flavorful-we loved it and I will definitely be using this recipe the next time we are craving mac and cheese!
snoopy66 Posted: 09/14/11
The butternut squash mixture smelled really good when cooking, but after adding the cheeses it became grainy and gooey. I used pre-shredded gruyere and I think that was a mistake- it was already drier than freshly shredded. Also the romano and parm are not the best melting cheeses, making it grainier than I would have liked. Once baked it was dry too. It was okay, but needs some work. Definitely more milk for creaminess and garlic and pepper for flavor. This isn't traditional mac and cheese and picky eaters may not like the nutty flavors of the squash and gruyere.
jmdean78 Posted: 09/22/11
I agree with some of the other comments. Takes way longer than the time on the recipe, dirties a lot of dishes, expensive and EXTREMELY DRY. I tasted the sauce before going into the oven and it was really good and creamy. In fact, I was worried that it would be watery! I should have left it like that, though. After taking it out of the oven, there was no sauce and it was so dry. It didn't even really taste cheesy anymore. I was really bummed.
jlikestorun Posted: 10/03/11
This is a wonderful - healthy recipe. My kids and husband, all of whom "hate" squash - love it. It's important to use the cheeses listed (although, in a pinch you can substitute asiago for reggiano) for the best flavor. I do not put the crumbs on top and we don't miss them at all - I also use quinoa pasta, which adds protein and does not contain gluten. If you have some left, use it to make a second meal by adding diced ham and broccoli - another big hit!
wanderingviolet Posted: 09/25/11
I thought it was delicious! I subbed some sharp cheddar cheese for some of the gruyere since I had some on hand (and love sharp cheddar!). Like another reviewer I used an immersion blender and cooked everything in my dutch oven to reduce the number of dishes my husband will have to do later :)
mottsapplesauce Posted: 10/02/11
The night of making this dish, it was pretty delicious (we served it as a side with salmon patties). However, leftovers were not creamy at all, bread crumbs were soft, and the dish was a bit bland. It had a stiff mashed potatoes-quality to it. If you are making this for two people, cut the recipe in half. My husband ate leftovers for 2 days and we still threw half of it out. If you really want to try it, add lots more milk and go by the suggestions of the rest of these folks making comments!
jwmassey Posted: 10/16/11
This recipe was great!! I love Butternut Squash and Gruyere Cheese. It was very creamy and knowing how much fat and calories were eliminated made it even better. My husband liked it also. The only change I made was to add the whole small Greek Yogurt to it so it wouldn't be wasted.
PamKay Posted: 09/07/11
We used a pumpkin from our garden instead of the butternut squash - it's all winter squash anyway. Everyone enjoyed it immensely! With 1 lb of frozen pumpkin (I bake it and freeze in portioned containers) we'll have a head start on the preparation and make this all winter. I also used 10 oz. total of assorted cheeses from the fridge - asiago, monteray jack, some irish cheese - very flavorful.
Huntingtonmom44 Posted: 08/28/11
It was a bit time consuming and I was terrified my daughter was going to "taste" the butternut and not eat it. She loved it, and even asked if she could have it for breakfast. Butternut squash is a pain to prepare but well worth it in the end. I just have to get better at it because the family has already requested that I make it again.
martyj Posted: 08/29/11
I have to say I was disappointed with this one. I followed the recipe to the tee and found it came out on the dry side, not at all creamy like the recipe says. It took a long time and there were tons of dishes to wash. I liked the butternut squash in it though. Next time I make a mac and cheese I will stick with the real thing.
CarlyCo Posted: 08/28/11
This is outstanding! Loved it! Even my son, who is super picky about his mac n' cheese (i.e. prefers it out of a box) said, "We should have this every day!" I did not use the cheese listed in the recipe, instead I used a 2 cup bag of Sargento mixed artesianal cheeses and about a quarter cup of mixed chedder/jack (from a bag). I do keep parmesano reggiano on hand, so that was included of course, but it worked out fantastic. At first I was worried there was too much liquid, the sauce wasn't as thick as it looked in the picture (when mixing the squash puree and cheeses) but after adding in the pasta and baking, it set up perfectly!
Monica3 Posted: 09/04/11
We really enjoyed this recipe. It was a tasty and healthier twist on the mac and cheese. Nevertheless, you will be disappointed if you are expecting this to taste just like mac and cheese. I also think that my cost-benefit analysis was shaped in great part by using (1) peeled and cubed butternut squash (available at Whole Foods); (2) grated Romano and Parmesan cheeses; and (3) an immersion blender. This recipe would have been quite a chore without these shortcuts: still tasty, but a lot harder to make.
BitseyBarker Posted: 09/22/11
We made the recipe almost exactly as written and it was amazing! The only thing we did different was use an immersion blender instead of a traditional one (which I think reduces the graininess some people mention) and I may have been slightly heavy handed with the milk (as in I think I added 1 2/3 cups instead of 1 1/2). I thought it was too wet going into the oven but it came out just fine. We had no problem with dryness and the flavor was delicious! I don't share many of the other complaints I see here. We were able to find packages of cheese close to the amount we needed and only spent $10-12. Also, I didn't find that I dirtied more dishes than I usually do when cooking dinner. If you'd call it a hassle to make (which we don't) then we believe it is well worth it. This recipe is a definite keeper in my home!
elishapisha Posted: 10/05/11
I've made this twice now and it's SO delicious. Sure, it takes a bit of work, but I just managed to do it on a weeknight, so it can't be too bad, right? I would suggest slightly undercooking the pasta (I let it boil for 6 min instead of 8 min) so it soaks up some of the sauce into the pasta to finish cooking and doesn't get overly soggy. Even my fiance, who doesn't like squash, is a fan. It freezes and reheats in individual containers really well, which is a huge plus in our busy house.
abbyandchris Posted: 10/03/11
Great texture! My squash came out to be about a cup more than it called for, but i added it anyway. Because of that I think the cheese to squash ratio was a bit off - but I still loved it. Will def make again.
rauksu Posted: 09/25/11
This was really yummy. I could not stop eating it before it even came out of the oven! Changes: No yogurt - I subbed ricotta instead. Used bagged grated swiss & GOOD parmesean instead of the other expensive cheeses. I had to add more milk. Next time I will use a whole butternut squash and add more milk as it was VERY dry. I might even just try it with a 2% cheese blend. I think that "hiding" the squash was a great idea for the kids (and husband!). I will be making this again, although is is definitely not a weeknight meal as regular mac & cheese can be. Served with a london broil and roasted brussel sprouts.
darklykawaii Posted: 09/28/11
We -loved- this. I have never seen my daughters gobble up a Cooking Light recipe so fast (minus the desserts ;))! I did make a few substitutions to suit us: used whole wheat penne, used good Romano and Parmesan for cheaper alternatives to their expensive counterparts, used 1% milk instead of fat free, left out the oil at the end on both the panko and last step, and substituted multigrain cracker crumbs for the panko as I was out. Dee-lish. I would say the serving size could be halved easily if this is for a side dish; I ate the serving as my dinner and was full. As many people have complained, this isn't a wet dish. The sauce firms and adheres to the pasta but the texture is definitely not unpleasant. Add more of the milk and broth if you need a liquid sauce.
scientist Posted: 10/02/11
Total disappointment. I've made much better low fat mac and cheese recipes, and much better Cooking Light Recipes. Not only was it not creamy or particularly cheesy, but it was oddly dry. It says to "serve immediately" and that's probably because it started to get a congealed texture to it while I was eating it. Also, it had a nutty, kind of sweet flavor to it, which is not necessarily bad, but is not what I'm looking for in Mac and cheese... Lots of money and effort - I guess I'll eat it, depending on the texture of the leftovers, but I would NEVER make it again...
ElyssiaM Posted: 09/13/11
This was amazing! We are NOT butternut squash fans in this house, you couldn't tell at all. I did use whole, raw milk instead of the lighter version (that's what we had in the house). It was creamy & delicious, even reheated the next day. Loved it. This is the recipe I'll use from now on to make Mac & Cheese!
NEglmm Posted: 09/25/11
Very good, added a little extra milk. Both my wife and my son, who hates anything with vegetables in it, declared it a definite do again.
LaurenVan Posted: 09/29/11
Fantastic! Easy and delicious. You wouldn't even know there was squash in there. I served it with an easy zucchini, yellow squash, onion, pepper and tomato saute! Also, I used slightly more squash, my immersion blender and mixed the sauce with the noodles in the pot I cooked the noodles in, this helped with moisture and cut down on the dishes.
abcfoodie Posted: 10/04/11
Love this recipe! Try it even if you don't like butternut squash! I used frozen butternut squash and halved the pecorino romano. I put the cheese into the blender along with the pureed squash. I also didn't brown the bread crumbs-just spritzed with olive oil and a little extra parmesan(once I drizzled it with a little butter) My husband loved it and my youngest daughter, who usually doesn't care for mac and cheese, asked if I could make pasta this way all the time!
ellie31773 Posted: 10/18/11
This dish is spectacular. It went together really easily, and both my husband and I are looking forward to eating the leftovers throughout the week. We threw in a bit of diced sweet pepper and a minced chili from our garden, and the flavors were very complementary.
Mia123456 Posted: 10/28/11
Very good! Modifications I made: I used whole wheat shell pasta and whole wheat panko bread crumbs. I also used veggie broth instead of chicken broth since I'm a vegetarian. I had a lot of squash so I made some extra, leaving off the bread crumbs and put an uncooked one in the freezer, will add bread crumbs when I'm ready to defrost and cook that one. My toddler also liked this.
ChefAmandaLynn Posted: 09/19/11
Rich and creamy, I LOVED this. My main modification was to sub Swiss for Guyere as it is not only less expensive but also creamier. I blended my pecarino romano and swiss very fine in the VitaMix so it melted very well. I also skipped the panko topping.
thenerd Posted: 09/28/11
Absolutely delicious! I was almost disappointed that I couldn't taste the squash but the flavor is wonderful. This will be part of our regular dinner rotation.
Allie79 Posted: 09/28/11
A hit at our house! I used penne as suggested by the recipe, whole-wheat no less. Everyone loved it. I agree with other reviewers that (even though we did use the cheeses as directed in the recipe) you could alter this to your liking and budget by using your choice of cheese. I tasted it before putting it into the baking dish and only needed to add just a bit more salt.
willisonjk Posted: 10/02/11
Great alternative to mac and cheese - based on reviews, I made the following changes: added more milk (maybe 3/4 cup) and 2 tblsp of reduced fat cream cheese. With these changes, we cooked it for the full 25 min and it didn't dry out at all.
SClipp2 Posted: 10/29/11
LOVE LOVE LOVE this. I have honestly NEVER used squash in anything before and I was so pleased with how this came out! I am the world's biggest fan of mac and cheese and cannot believe how tasty this version was. I will say that 20 minutes was plenty of time and didn't dry anything out. My husband added some hot sauce to his serving and said it was perfect.
JNovey Posted: 10/31/11
The best homemade mac & cheese recipe that I have ever made. It was easy to make and the flavor exceeded my expectations. I wasn't sure what to expect with the butternut squash but it actually gave it a great flavor and the taste was excellent. I highly recommend this recipe and one that I will make for my family again.
schwarzep Posted: 10/28/11
I was so surprised how good this was. Not as good as the real deal (and I didn't expect it to be - that's not the point of this recipe. I don't know what some of these other reviewers are thinking), but it will definitely now be in the weeknight rotation. Only thing I changed was I used reduced fat Italian shredded cheese mix and parmesan to make it more kid friendly.
Spunkydancer Posted: 12/12/11
One word: DELICIOUS! I made this and total faked out my veggie-averse husband and father in law! Score 1 for me. In fact, they commented how delicious the house smelled as I was simmering the squash :) Sneaky sneaky me. This recipe is a keeper and I pretty much stuck to it except maybe being a little more heavy handed with the cheese.
HotAppleC Posted: 10/20/11
LOVED this recipe. I made a few small modifications: I did not add salt (since the cheese is already so salty anyways), I added a little extra garlic, and I added 1/4 tsp of nutmeg. I think the nutmeg really made it. My whole family loved it- I will definitely be making this again!
lfirebrand Posted: 10/31/11
Really delicious! I halved the recipe and used sharp cheddar, Parmesan and Feta instead of Gruyere and Romano cheese. I also added some Sriracha to taste to the squash mixture and baked for 20 minutes instead of 25. Not quite as cheesy as regular mac and cheese, but delicious just the same. I served this with a simple green salad dressed in a mustard vinaigrette.
erikachicago Posted: 11/10/11
I liked this recipe but none of the four children I served it to did. Next time I think I would substitute cheddar or american cheese for the gruyere to have a more child-friendly flavor.
josicasas Posted: 12/08/11
Absolutely loved it!!!! Never had mac and cheese like this. I'd never had butternut squash but the taste was amazing. Everyone loved it so will definitely make again.
StephanieReid Posted: 11/20/11
jb1963 Posted: 01/08/12
This is delicious! I used 2 boxes of frozen butternut squash puree to save time. It came out wonderfully. I added a little nutmeg for flavor to compensate for the frozen squash. Yum Yum.
starfroggie Posted: 11/12/11
The squash and broth smelled amazing when simmering, the end product was very good!
ThereseMA Posted: 11/03/11
My boyfriend and I loved this version of mac and cheese. Preparation was pretty easy, only because I used two packages of frozen pureed butternut squash. I put the broth, milk, and garlic in a pan and put the two chunks of frozen squash in there and let it defrost and combine. This, added to the fact that I omitted the panko altogether, definitely cut down on prep effort and time. Once I added the cheese to the mixture, I was really afraid the sauce would be too watery in the oven. (We used cheeses we had on hand -- cheddar, swiss, etc.) It thickened up considerably, though, and the end result was delicious. This is a winner in the category of everyday comfort food.
Avidcook43 Posted: 12/31/11
This is a great recipe. I made it for my husband and he suggested I make it as part of our Christmas Eve dinner but not to tell anyone that it is a light recipe with the butternut squash. I served it with a baked ham to rave reviews. Then I told everyone the reduced calories and ingredients. My great nephew, who is 13 years old, asked his mother to get the recipe from me. I'd call that a Cooking Light success. I do suggest using a food scale instead of just measuring the cheese and squash. I think it keeps the recipe accurate. I had enough of the ingredients to make another recipe for New Year's. By the way I prepared the recipe the night before and did not bake it until I wanted to serve it on the holiday. I even adjusted the baking time so I could bake it with ham at 325 degrees. I had it in the oven for about an hour and it came out fine.
marieb24 Posted: 12/14/11
This was wonderful! I didn't find it dry at all like some other reviewers. I cooked the squash in my large stock pot so was able to use an immersion blender to blend--then just threw in the cheeses and pasta--no need to mix in a separate bowl. Next time I would undercook the pasta a bit. I might also add in a few more things like a dash of dried mustard and up the garlic in the sauce. My 11 year old daughter ate a huge serving and I felt like I was cheating on WW! It comes out looking very orange, but my daughter who won't eat orange cheese was ok with it because she knew it had squash in it!

I was a little weary about making this, it just didn't sound good to me. My mother told me she had made and liked it, so I thought i would give it a shot. I was out of panko, so used regular breadcrumbs and followed the rest of the recipe. I thought it was quite good. Mine was not dry at all and had great flavor. Would definately make again. And definately worth making.

OBSESSED with this butternut squash mac n cheese! Doubled the garlic and had about 4C of cubed squash, cooked it 28 mins; otherwise followed the recipe to a T. Next time I make it (and there will be a next time) I might try some sharp cheddar for more tang. SOOOO GOOOD!

I've now made this several times. It has NEVER been dry! I've used both previously peeled and cut squash as well as fresh, and it has come out fine either way. I will say that using frozen squash can produce a more bland dish.....there's something about the fresh stuff! The first time I made it I used an ounce of ementhaler (since I couldn't find enough Gruyere) and it was really delicious--better than when I used just Gruyere. Using the cheeses specified in the recipe produces a very rich flavor.....I found already grated Parm-Reggiano and Romano-Pecorino at my local grocery store and they worked fine, although the Parm/Reggiano cheese is a little pricey. The Panko/parmesan topping gives the dish a quick burst of cheese flavor with every bite. My husband loved this, especially when I added lobster meat to it as a special treat for my Maine-born spouse. I even tripled the recipe and made it for men at a homeless shelter.....more nutritious than high-fat mac and cheese.

I made this as a cooking demonstration at my church's fall festival. The adults and the kids loved it. I was surprised how savory it was and so much healthier than regular mac-n-cheese. I also served it to company with pork chops but it could easily be your main dish. The recipe goes together quickly once you get the squash chopped and heated with the milk. You can boil the pasta while you are heating the squash. Freeze before the last step (baking) and it also turns out great.
Dyanna33 Posted: 11/22/11
My ultra-picky 13 year old daughter (who didn't want to know what the ingredients were while I was cooking) absolutely loved this dish. I had never cut fresh butternut squash before but have since learned some tricks to make that a little easier (i.e. either precooking it a little before trying to cut it or buying it already cut!). I'm making it again tonight per my daughters request. Yummy and healthy!
Pdigiacomofan52 Posted: 01/22/12
This was really delicious and easy to make. However, I noted that it was not too creamy inside. I took it out of the oven, covered it with foil and allowed it to sit for 15 minutes before the other entrees were ready to be served. I think the next time I make it, I will add the entire 20z package of butternut squash and use 1 and 3/4 cup of milk, and maybe a little extra low fat cheese. But otherwise, I can't wait to finish serve the leftovers a couple more times this week.
BrendaLRGale Posted: 02/16/12
This was the most amazing mac & cheese EVER!!! Hubby pigged out, making yummy sounds the entire time. Haha! I used penne rigate instead of he cavatappi. Can't wait for leftovers tonight! Ten pts of warm coziness!
SabrinaTew Posted: 01/19/12
I made this for Thanksgiving this past year and everyone loved it. I didn't want to use the more expensive cheeses on a mac & cheese recipe so I substituted low fat cream cheese for the Gruyere and then added grated Parmesan instead of the other two cheeses. Everyone loved it and even normally picky kids said they liked it better than regular mac and cheese. I will definitely make this again!
ElissaPit Posted: 02/25/12
This is the best lightened mac-and cheese recipe I have found, by far. It is a dead ringer for the original. I did not use the same cheeses though - I used sharp cheddar for the Gruyere and parmesan for the Romano, plus a little light cream cheese, and I only used 14 oz of cavatappi. It was very creamy. Also, my husband detests butternut squash, but he happily ate this.
Bertazzoni Posted: 02/23/12
I love this dish! The last time I made it, I put everything together and froze half of it (it freezes very well). The frozen dish came out much creamier because I did not bake it, just heated it up in the microwave. In the future, I will skip the last part.....
gotbidnezz Posted: 02/24/12
We thought this was great. Easy way to trick boys into eating vegetables, and no problems with grainy-ness, evenness, or reheating.
KHallAllison Posted: 10/14/12
I just made this and it was a hit! I substituted a cup of canned pumpkin puree for the squash to make it easier. I also increased the garlic and sauteed it in a little olive oil before adding the rest of the ingredients for step 1 to the same pan. I then skipped the blending in step 2, and continued as written, using the same pan. Much less work and less to clean! To make it a meal, I added in shredded store-bought rotisserie chicken before baking. I also skipped browning the panko in a pan and turned on the broiler for a few minutes at the end of cooking, as other reviews have suggested. To really make it taste special, I also drizzled a little truffle oil over the top just before serving. My husband LOVED it, and even requested it for Thanksgiving!
Zeolite Posted: 05/20/13
I made this today and it's awesome. Regular mac and cheese is too rich for me but this is a perfect balance of cheesy and creamy without being too heavy. I didn't pan fry the panko at the end, I just sprinkled it on top and it browned in the oven. And I topped it with chives from my garden and some cubed roasted squash that was extra from the sauce (I roasted it on cookie sheet in with & while the pasta was baking). Excellent recipe!
JanetMlr Posted: 11/10/12
Delicious!! After reading many of the reviews, I'm sure I made one little change no one else tried... I used a can of Whole Foods' organic puréed butternut squash. So no blenders (immersion or otherwise) needed. It wasn't my idea. I gave the recipe to my daughter and she made it before I did. I mixed and heated all the same initial ingredients, including crushed garlic instead of whole, and just followed the recipe. I did add a little dry mustard and nutmeg, which I've always put in my mac & cheese. I used whole wheat bowtie pasta, and whole wheat Panko breadcrumbs. I'll definitely be making this again... and so much easier than make a roux and bechamel! And even easier since I didn't have to move from the pot to the blender to a bowl. I added the other ingredients, cheeses and the pasta to the heated mixture in the same pot.
laurac281 Posted: 09/25/12
My family LOVED this recipe! I will admit up front that I used cheeses that I already had on hand in my fridge, but I used the same total amount that the recipe called for. I used a combo of swiss, monterey jack, and asiago cheeses. I also used a couple tips I saw already posted in the reviews... used my stick blender to blend the cooked butternut squash, and I skipped pre-toasting the panko crumbs, and simply turned the broiler on at the end of baking for 1-2 minutes. Worked perfectly! I only made 1/2 the recipe, but wish I'd made the full recipe. My daughter wanted it in her lunch tomorrow, and my husband wanted more! Can't wait to make it again.
TiffaniAnn Posted: 04/10/12
This is my second time making it. The first time I just used Swiss cheese, not the expensive Gruyere. This time I went with cheddar because it was in the fridge. I made a batch and froze the leftovers in small batches for my little one. She loves it, and my husband enjoys it too. It's creamy and a little sweet. To save time, I cube up the squash on a weekend when I have more time and prepare the mac n cheese the night before we plan to eat it. The day of, I take it out of the fridge after work, let it sit for a bit and toss it in the oven to reheat.
zandar2 Posted: 03/11/12
it is good but mine came out a little dry
vickizung Posted: 10/26/12
Have made this several times for different crowds and everyone always LOVES it, even little kids. No one knows there's butternut squash in it unless I tell them. Almost any cheese works. I puree in the pan with an immersion blender and then again after adding the cheese until the sauce is silky smooth. The true secret is in cooking the squash with chicken stock and garlic. It adds so much flavor ... yum!
Rachel12345 Posted: 12/06/12
Made last night with a few changes. Made about 2/3 of the milk/broth/squash and about 1/2 lb pasta; used sharp cheddar instead of gruyere; added a pinch of cayene and 1/2 tsp mustard with the salt and pepper. Added the mixture to the hot pasta, and (as starches do) the pasta absorbed the sauce as it cooled. Topped with a little more cheese. Covered while baking, since sauce had already been absorbed. GREAT flavor! Can't think of any reason it wouldn't work with quinoa pastas. And may try it with canned pumpkin next time instead of the squash!
Madquilt2008 Posted: 08/13/12
This is a great recipe,perfect way to get veggies into your kids and grandkids. They loved it. I sometimes substituted swiss and/or colby for the cheese. Any of these work in this recipe.
jcg469 Posted: 11/25/12
Also tried with the pureed butternut squash and recommend it for time savings as well - was really fantastic! Don't cut out the garlic, that made the dish.
topchefnotramen Posted: 05/08/13
I couldn't find gruyere cheese at my supermarket, so I used a combination of a couple cheeses I had on hand; shredded mozzarella, garlic and herb cheddar, and shredded cheddar jack. I also used half a head of garlic, and added cheyenne, paprika, and seasoning salt, because I didn't have chicken broth. I thought this recipe was amazing, and really rich. I made it with the new Barilla veggie pasta, specifically the penne. This recipe is a great guide, and open to a lot of variation depending on you and your family's taste!
koriander Posted: 02/10/13
This recipe was so unusual I had to try it. It turned out amazingly good. A few things different. I used a public box of frozen mashed butternut which was 12 oz, and used 4 oz extra milk to make up the 16 oz difference. I also used less pasta (maybe 3/4 box?) Because I love mine saucy. I freshly grated my cheese. I heated up the squash mix as directed and skipped the blender step. I will definately make again.
mfc129 Posted: 03/02/13
Excellent! I made it using brown rice pasta. The starchiness of it added to the creaminess.
AshleyEvans Posted: 02/25/13
This was really good. I added extra garlic and maybe a half a cup more butternut squash, plus I used 2% milk. Otherwise, I followed the recipe. It turned out spectacular. I actually had a ton of sauce versus the other reviewers who said it was too dry (however, I used an immersion blender, so I didn't lose any liquid from transferring from pot to pot). Toasting the panko breadcrumbs and cheese in a pan added a nice crunch -- in fact, even leftovers in the fridge tasted crunchy. The leftovers were amazing (even cold) since the cheese didn't harden with the addition of the squash. Super creamy and delicious...I prefer this to many full-fat options that I've made! This will definitely make the regular rotation!
emloumar Posted: 04/26/12
I thought this was excellent. I will definitely be making this again. Based on other reviews, I baked the mac and cheese for 5 minutes only just to heat the bread crumbs on top. It was not dry at all. I also used a little extra gruyere because i didn't want to have any left over cheese. Overall, this was a great recipe.
jenggeb Posted: 04/11/14
Really tasty! I broiled it for the last few minutes to get the breadcrumbs brown and crispy.
cnl5031 Posted: 11/19/13
I took advice from some reviewers before me and used less pasta ( wheat rigatoni) and I added a half a cup of milk. I used 2 cups of an italian cheese mix. I also added italian seasoning to the bread crumbs and kept the casserole covered up until the last 10 minutes. It was very moist and delicious!
Lisajane Posted: 04/16/14
This was insane! Swapped out the chicken stock for vegetable stock and used smoked gruyere instead of regular. Best Mac and Cheese I've ever made. My daughter insisted on seconds.

Pakistan Nearly Bans 'I Am Malala' As The Teen Stands For Educating Girls Everywhere
From Upworthy and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation
Ensuring girls around the world get to go to school doesn't just take money — it also requires the universal belief that women deserve equal access to education. Malala Yousafzai almost lost her life working to give a voice to girls who were banned by the Taliban from being educated in her home country of Pakistan. She was nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize, and she has inspired countless people worldwide to stand up for what they deserve.
The refrain of this song features young girls singing "I am Malala," which I love because it reminds me of the great Martin Luther King Jr. quote: "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere."
'I Am Malala' #24 On Amazon
Pakistan has all but banned Malala Yousafzai book 'I Am Malala', currently #24 on Amazon. London's The Independent writes that The All Pakistan Private Schools Federation, representing more than 152,000 institutions in Pakistan has decided that pupils would experience a "negative" effect by reading the book. The Federation also says the book is not entirely respectful of Islam.
"Pakistan is an ideological country. That ideology is based on Islam … In this book are many comments that are contrary to our ideology.," said the federation's president, Mirza Kashif.
Pakistan ranks 132 out of 135 countries in the Global Gender Gap Index for its treatment of females. The US ranks 23.
Malala Wows Jon Stewart
16 year old Malala Yousafzai is interviewed here by Jon Stewart on The Daily Show. Stewart asked Malal what she would do if attacked again by a Taliban gunman.
"I would tell him how important education is and that I would even want education for your children as well," the Pakistani girl said. "That's what I want to tell you, now do what you want."
The man who ordered Malala's assassination Mullah Fazlullah emerged as the new chief of the Taliban in Pakistan after a US drone killed Hikimullah Mehsud last week.
Malala At World Bank
Malala asks world to make education top priority The Dawn
Malala appeared with World Bank president Jim Young Kim at the bank's headquarters in Washington in order to accept a $200 million donation to the Malala Fund. Commenting that she had launched the fund to "work on the gorund" to promote education for all children, the poised, fearless voice for girls said:
"I am proud to be a girl, and I know that girls can change the world."
"If a terrorist can change someone's mind and convince them to become a suicide bomber, we can also change their minds and tell them education is the only way to bring humanity and peace."
Malala reminded the audience that this week she launched a book, "I am Malala", adding that "this book not only tells my story, but it tells the story of every girl who has been suffering from terrorism in Afghanistan and Pakistan. It is about girls' rights."

After reading some comments about Annie's change in attitude over Kat finding somebody, I realised there's another reason she could be upset over what she saw.
With how excited and encouraging she was about the love letter, I think Annie really wanted to be there for Kat through it all. Supporting her with first dates, what to wear, all that stuff.
Instead she hears nothing about the letter afterwards and finds out weeks later that her friend had been doing all of that in secret, without her. She must feel pretty terrible being left out of her friend's life like that.
That said after all this build up, it would be a bit of a cop out if Kat having a girlfriend was a complete non-issue for Annie.
Hmmm, I really like this interpretation on its own, but I really dig the crossed out bits. You can't tackle issues if...

Protesters clashed with security forces as the country's Shiite majority seeks a greater political voice in the strategic Sunni-ruled kingdom, which is home to the U.S. Navy's 5th Fleet.
MANAMA, Bahrain — Anti-government protesters in Bahrain set up roadblocks and clashed with security forces amid high tensions on the second anniversary of the uprising in the Gulf nation.
The demonstrators on Thursday included groups chanting against talks aimed at easing the Arab Spring-inspired unrest in the country.
Bahrain's Shiite majority is seeking a greater political voice in the strategic Sunni-ruled kingdom, which is home to the U.S. Navy's 5th Fleet.
Street battles broke out before dawn in some Shiite neighborhoods, but opposition groups also have called for a nationwide strike to mark the anniversary.
More than 55 people have been killed in the two-year unrest. Some activists place the death toll higher.

Geolocation in MongoDB at the Silicon Valley MongoDB User GroupBy Shashank Tiwari
January 19, 2013
Thanks to all of you, who were able to join me at the session on January 15, 2013. Thanks much for the kind remarks some of you left behind on the meetup message board, post the session. �Its very rewarding...
Geotag Photos ProBy Gene McCullagh
July 21, 2012
A lot of great things have been piling up that I want to tell you about. The first is a great app from the folks at TappyTapps called Geotag Photos Pro. Lightroom 4 has a new Map module which let's you geotag your images. If your camera doesn't capture the GPS data then you need to capture it in some other way. You could buy expensive add ons for your DSLR to track GPS data. Or you could get one of those little GPS trackers you clip to your belt. Either of those, however, are more expensive solutions than Geotag Photos Pro. This is an app that you run on your iPhone (or Android Phone) that turns it into a GPS Tracker! More likely than not you will have your phone with you. I know I've left that small stand alone tracker home many times but I had my phone with me. But this is more than just an app. There is also a website where you can save your logs as well as review them on maps. The site also has a desktop application to let you tag your images. As a Lightroom 4 user you won't need this but it's good to know it's available.

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
I agree that is it CRITICAL to mention issues to low-performers BEFORE finding their replacement. You've just GOT to let folks know when their position is in jeopardy due to their performance. Soften it, be kind, let them know you think they're great, but that their DPS, heals, or tanking just needs work, and you have to put them (him/her- grammar nazis, get out!) on probation. I find it useful to mention that they need to be put on probation to let them know how big the problem is. Yes, yes, we know, we rarely wipe, but you're also not quite pulling your weight yet, Probation raider, and we'd love to keep you around, here are x and y resources to help you out, and that (DPS/healer/tank) over there, Bob, would be pleased to advise you and help you out if he can. But in the end, this is all up to you. We're confident you can do it, but even if you can't, we wouldn't mind keeping you as a friend. Keep on truckin'!
That kind of thing gets a few different kinds of response, and almost none of them are truly pleasant for the messenger. However, such a thing initiates the process of gkick, gives a second chance (if this person takes the second chance of does WELL, you've probably found a new core-group raider. People who can take criticism and improve are the people you WANT in your guild!), and keeps everyone informed.
Don't let guild meltdown happen to you. Communicate your judgments of poor raid performance in as non-confrontational a way as you can, and let nature run her course.

ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) - A complaint filed with the federal Justice Department alleges that different standardized testing goals for black and Hispanic students in Florida is discriminatory.
The complaint was filed Friday by the Southern Poverty Law Center against the Florida Department of Education and the state Board of Education.
The complaint alleges that Florida education officials have set less ambitious test result goals for black and Hispanic students compared to white and Asian students.
The complaint says race-based achievement goals are unsound and implement self-fulfilling low expectations.

"Druids, the class that can be everything, compete for top charts, and still whines for every time balancing is done®"
Gutter, and what do you call Paladins? Aren't they too a class that can be everything... and usually, they are much more appreciated than druids - as tanks and dps at least.
When it comes to the healing point of view, it seems like Blizz want to force us into using Nourish... and, that takes us one step closer to leave our HoTs and become Paladins and Priests in tree form.
With the spirit changes, and the double cost of Lifebloom it looks a bit dark at the moment for restoration druids, I agree. And I do understand people being angry with Blizz for even coming up with such ideas - even though it's only on the PTR.
For you who haven't ever played as a druid, it's actually not the fact that they want to balance our class, it's about changing
the whole playstyle (and that there is a risk that they're throwing our new WotLK items out the window).

Home > About Us
PBSFCU (Phi Beta Sigma Federal Credit Union) is a full-service financial services provider, serving Sigma's, Zeta's and their families internationally. While it is similar to a bank in terms of the services it provides, it is philosophically different in operation. Each dollar invested by members goes toward giving another member a reasonable loan rate. And in turn, investing members receive better rates and lower fees than they would otherwise get at typical banks and financial institutions. We call our customers 'members' because, in actuality, they all own a part of the credit union.
Our members are shareholders of the credit union - they earn dividends on the money they invest in the company. The money invested is then used to finance loans to fellow shareholders. One person helping another.
Many people find PBSFCU the only financial services provider they need. Our exceptional staff is dedicated to helping our membership. That personal commitment is what sets PBSFCU apart from the banks and other financial service companies. At a time when service levels seem to be at a frustratingly all-time low, PBSFCU scored extremely high in customer satisfaction surveys.

Chapter 12: To Keep All Our Old Mistakes2 Reviews
"Jeanae, I'll talk to you later. I'm a little busy." Pete closed his phone. "You could of talked to her." Pete walked to Tina and bent down to her level. "I'm sorry. She's been calling . And she somehow found out I was in jail and came to visit me." "Why does she have a hold over you. Tell her to get lost." "Tina, you don't understand everything that we've been through."
"This isn't going to work." "What isn't?" "Us. I can't always look over my shoulder to see if she is there. Once you have given up on her, then maybe we can have a relationship. In the meantime we are just going to be friends." "Listen to me." "No. You kiss me and call me baby and then your ex girlfriend calls. How do you think I'm suppose to feel?" "I don't know. I'm sorry. Did you really want to go out with me? Are you ready to move on?"
"Get out. This isn't about me." "Just listen to me. Have you really grieved for Danny?" "Please just leave." She started to grab Pete's books and notebooks and put them in his backpack. Pete grabbed her arms and Tina dropped the books.
"Come here." Pete led her to the bed. "I'm an ass for leading Jeanae on with answering her calls. I'm sorry. I'm going to tell you something that no one knows. I'm seeing a therapist. My mind is all over the place sometimes. I don't feel that I am normal. Life is going around me, but I'm standing still. The guys think I get depressed because of Jeanae. She doesn't help, but it's not all her fault."
Pete looked into Tina's eyes. "I want to wake up in the mornings and be happy I'm alive. Sometimes it's so hard to get out of bed. I'm so tired of feeling like this. I stay in my room and write. I have about ten notebooks filled with my thoughts. I'm scared I'm not going to make it to 28. And if I do will I still be like this. I'm sorry. This isn't where I wanted to go."
"It's good that you are seeing someone. Is it helping?" "Sometimes. Lots of times I feel as though I'm being pulled in so many directions. I'm also seeing a psychiatrist for medication. Please don't get mad, but I think you should see a therapist. You've had a lot happen. You need someone to talk to." "I don't know." "I understand how hard it is to make that first step. I'll go with you if you want."
"Can I think about it?" "Sure. I don't want to push you into it." "Thank you. Maybe your right. I guess I just thought if I went out with Billy and now you the pain of Danny would go away. Plus, now with Billy. I just want to forget what he did." "We both moved on too fast, even when we said we wouldn't. Friends then." Pete smiled.
"Of course. Thanks for being so understanding. So, what are you going to do about Jeanae?" "I'm going to call her and tell her it's over for good and not to call or see me." "Will she listen?" "I don't know. But I can't go through the pain she causes." "I'm glad you see that is what she causes you. I could see that the first day I was here. You need to let her go. Maybe she will understand." Pete smiled at Tina.
"You really don't know Jeanae do you?" "Be serious. You need to tell her where you stand. If you want her in your life don't do anything. She'll keep calling and stay in your life, but if you don't you need to be strong." "I will." "What are you doing tomorrow?" "School and studying. Dad has been getting on me for failing a few classes, so I'm trying to study more." "That's good." "I guess. I can pick you up from school tomorrow." "I'd like that."
There was a knock on the door. "Come in." Tina said. "I brought you two a couple of pops and some popcorn." "Thank you, mom." Tina's mom handed Tina and Pete the pop and popcorn and left. "Yum, this tastes good. I didn't have any supper." "Peter, you need to eat." "I know. I just got busy with writing and practicing. If you haven't noticed I'm not the best bass player." "You are good." "Sure. How is your music coming?" "Good. Mostly just playing around." "Sometimes the best things come from playing around." "I hope you are talking about music." "Ha-ha. Aren't you funny. I better get going. I want to call Jeanae and tell her it's officially over before I go to bed." "Alright. Good luck." "Thanks. I'll need it."
Pete grabbed his backpack and walked downstairs with Tina. "Maybe I'll call you and let you know what happened." "Okay. See you tomorrow." Tina kissed Pete on the cheek and closed the door.
Tina turned and was about to go in the kitchen when her dad asked for her. "Tina, can you come here for a minute." She walked to the living room. "Yes, is something wrong?" "No. I just wanted to talk to you about Pete." "What about him?" "I don't think it would be a good idea for you to get so close to him." "We are just friends." "I know. Just be careful." "I will, but there's nothing to worry about." "Okay. I trust your judgment." "I'm going to go to bed soon." "Good night."
Tina walked upstairs and went to her computer. A few minutes later the phone rang. "Hello?" "Tina, I told her. It's over. She didn't take it too well. I think she got the message though." "That's good. I hope things will go better for you without her." "Me too. I just wanted to let you know that I called her. I'll pick you up tomorrow." "Pete, are you alright." "Yeah. I'll be fine. Have a good night." "I will. You too." Tina hung up the phone and went to bed.
Tina was waiting for Pete outside of the high school. She seen him pull up. "Your late." "Sorry I fell asleep and didn't set my alarm." "I notice your light on at 4am." "You were up?" "I had to use the bathroom. Nosy." Pete laughed.
"It was a rough night. I'm glad I broke up with her for good, but it's a big step I guess." "Yes, it is. Especially for how long you've been together." "Yeah. How was your day?" "It was alright. Not much going on with Billy. Thank god." "Good." "Do you want to come over and study?" "I can't. The guys are coming over and after I need to work on a paper." "Alright." "I'll call or we can message while I do my paper." "Okay. I'll be on."
Pete parked the car. "Talk to you later." "Bye, Pete." Once Tina was in the house she went to the kitchen. "Hi, mom." "Hi. You got some mail. I think it's from the D.A." "Oh. Alright." Tina opened the letter. "What does it say?" "The hearing starts on October 10th. A month from now. And I need to testify on the 12th." "How are you?" "Okay. Just nervous." "I'll be with you." "Thanks." She hugged her mom. "I'm going to watch some T.V.
After supper, Tina went upstairs to study. A hour later her messenger went off.
petahpanda: Hey
tinarocker: Hi, how are you?
petahpanda: Alright. The guys just left.
tinarocker: How did the practice go?
petahpanda: Good. We might do some demos next week.
tinarocker: That's great.
petahpanda: I know. I still don't think we are that great, but who knows. Anything exciting happen?
tinarocker: Not really. I did get a letter about the hearing. It starts in a month and a few days later I have to testify.
petahpanda: Are you alright?
tinarocker: I don't know. It's going to be hard when the date gets closer.
petahpanda: You'll do just fine.
petahpanda: You'll put the fucker away.
tinarocker: Thanks. I hope I do.
petahpanda: Do you want to go for coffee tomorrow? As friends
tinarocker: You don't have to say that. But yes I do.
petahpanda: Good. I really need to go. I haven't even started on my paper. I'll pick you up from school tomorrow.
tinarocker: Okay. Be on time.
petahpanda: I will. Bye
A month past and Tina was getting ready for the hearing. She was nervous about testifying. Tina went downstairs and grabbed a waffle. "How are you doing?" Her mom asked. "I'm doing okay. A little nervous." "Just focus on something in the courtroom. You don't even have to look at him." "Mom, I see him everyday at school. It's not him I'm worried about. It's his lawyer." "Just tell the truth. That's all you can do." "I know."
The doorbell rang. "I'll get it." Tina walked to the door. "Hello. These are for Tina Alvavado." There were a dozen red roses. "Oh. Thank you." Tina took the roses and went into the kitchen. "Oh my. Who are those for?" "Me." Tina looked for a card.
Good luck today. I'll
be thinking of you.
"There from Pete." "What a sweetheart. Can I ask you a question?" "Sure." "What is going on with you and Pete?" "We are just friends. He broke up with his girlfriend last month and he knows I'm still having a hard time with Danny and the rape." "I hope you and him get together. He does seem like a great guy. I know though your father might have a little problem." "Why?" "You're his only daughter, Pete is older, and not to mention Pete's tattoos." "If it wasn't for Pete I wouldn't of gone to the hospital." "I know. I'm just saying what your father has said to me. Just be warned when you do start to date." "Mom, what has he said?" "Just that he doesn't like Pete here all the time and especially in your room." "Why hasn't he said anything?" "I don't know. Maybe because he knows Pete makes you happy. We better go or we're going to be late." All Tina could think of is when Pete and her would date how her dad would react.
