I don't know about you, but I LOVE
using my crock pot! I usually have a meal from that on Thursday. We have SPEAR every Thursday from 2-3, so by the time we get home, I am not in the mood to get supper around and cook. There are times I forgot to get it going, and we do something easy, but most times I actually remember to get something in there! ;)
This is so easy, most recipes that are crock pot recipes are easy, if for some reason they aren't, I usually don't do them! ;)
This will seem like a LOT of liquid, but the noodles really do absorb it all.
You could use this as a side dish, or as a main meal. I actually did put some wings on the grill with this.
Pour milk in crock pot
Then a layer of noodles
Then a layer of shredded cheese
More milk, noddles and top off with cheese
Here it is... It looks kinda like scrambled eggs, I probably will only use 1-2 eggs instead of 4 next time. But it was still really good!
Again, it doesn't look like mac and cheese, but it's really good!
Give a try, super easy to put together and it tastes GREAT!! It's alot healthy than those boxes of mac and cheese. I haven't bought a box of mac and cheese for soooo long! It really is way easier than you think to make, even if you aren't using a crock pot! ;)
Crock Pot Mac and Cheese
1 pound noodles (whatever kinda you want, I used elbow- Infact I may have use more than 1 pound, I had a 2 pound box and used all but 1/4 of it... we eat alot... ;))
7 cups of milk
1 egg
4 cups cheese (I used sharp cheddar, cheddar and pepper jack)
Salt, pepper, and garlic salt to taste
1 tsp dried mustard
Grease crock pot VERY well! Scrambled the egg in the milk, and add seasoning, then place a bit of milk in bottom of crock pot. Then add some noodles, then some cheese... Repeat layer, and then put lid on. Cook on low for 2-5 hours... It took mine about 4 hours on low.
I stirred it after 2 hours of cooking, then again right before serving. I did taste it to see how the seasoning was and if I needed to add anymore, but ti was fine...
Super easy! ;)
