Crockpot Mac and Cheese
Crockpot Mac and Cheese
Want a quick meal for a busy weeknight or weekend. This was a quick throw together on a Sunday night when we had basketball games and Sunday family visits. This was very easy to make and to me tasted a bit like a cheese soufflƩ dish we make. I used a low fat evaporated milk, but stayed with the whole milk. We used the bagged shredded cheese to make this even easy. Paired with a salad and a light dessert and it was a quick comfort dinner. I would make it again but is still no substitute for my traditional Mac and Cheese.
Ingredients
Cooking spray
8 ounces elbow macaroni, cooked
One 12-ounce can evaporated milk
1 1/2 cups whole milk
1/4 cup (1/2 stick ) of butter, melted
1 teaspoon salt
Dash of pepper
2 large eggs, beaten
Two 10-ounce bricks sharp Cheddar cheese, grated (about 5 cups)
Dash of paprika
DirectionsDash of pepper
2 large eggs, beaten
Two 10-ounce bricks sharp Cheddar cheese, grated (about 5 cups)
Dash of paprika
In a large 4-quart slow cooker sprayed with cooking spray, mix the macaroni, evaporated milk, milk, butter, salt, pepper, eggs and all but 1/2 cup of the grated cheese. Sprinkle the reserved cheese over the top of the mixture and then sprinkle with paprika. Cover and cook on low heat for 3 hours and 15 minutes. Turn off the slow cooker, stir the mixture and serve hot.
