The Best Slow Cooker Mac & Cheese ever. It's true.

I love this stuff. You will too. There are several variations on this but this is our favorite.



Ingredients
8oz pkg elbow macaroni, cooked al dente
13oz can evaporated milk
1 cup milk
1/4 cup melted butter
2 eggs, slightly beaten
4 cups grated sharp cheddar cheese, divided (I buy the blocks and shred it myself, I think it melts and tates better.)
Salt and Pepper according to taste
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Directions
In slow cooker, combine macaroni, both milks, butter, eggs, salt & pepper and 3 cups of cheddar cheese. Mix well and top with remaining cheddar and Parmesan.
Cover and cook on low 3 hours.

  3. I've been using that recipe for a few years and love it. Sometimes we add diced ham or crumbled bacon to make it even more delicious.

    Thanks for stopping by my blog and leaving such a nice comment about my Day of the Dead tags. Very cool of you :-)

  5. HAHA Megan! Its important to boil them just until they are al dente (cooked so as to be firm but not hard) on the stovetop first. They will obviously still be cooking once you add them to the crock so to avoid overcooking and getting smooshy noodles, you have to give them some room to grow, so to speak =)

    Ps - I found a killer mac and cheese pizza.

  7. This is one of my favorite crockpot recipes to make! What so nice about this kind of dishes is that you can attend to your other list of things to do while dinner is cooking! And for a mom of 4, I really need a lot of crockpot recipes to balance my schedule, lol!
    Lovely necklace by the way, :)
