If you are not on the gluten-free bandwagon, you can add Panko Bread crumbs to the top of this dish. You can also throw some gluten free breadcrumbs on this dish. I haven't tried those breadcrumbs in any recipes yet, but may bust a move. (I have however tried the graham style crumbs before - obviously not on mac and cheese - word to the wise they taste like dirt.)
