Slow Cooker Macaroni And Cheese Recipe


Slow Cooker Macaroni And Cheese Recipe
Another one from my sister's cookbook. Pasta in the crockpot is a challenge since there has to be enough liquid to cook it, but not so much that it gets mushy. This one is a classic mac & cheese, & you don't have to make a heavy white sauce. ... More

Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 cups skim or low fat milk
  • 1 (15oz) can evaporated skim milk
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • large pinch pepper
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar
  • 8oz macaroni (about 2 cups), uncooked
  • 2 T parmesan

Directions
  1. Coat slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. Combine the fresh milk with the evaporated milk, egg, salt, and pepper in the cooker, and whisk until smooth.
  3. Add the cheese and macaroni (uncooked), and gently stir with a rubber spatula to coat evenly.
  4. Sprinkle the parmesan on top.
  5. Cover and cook on low until the custard is set in the center, and the pasta is tender, 3.5 to 4 hours. Do not cook more than 4 hours; the sides will dry out and burn.
  6. Macaroni and Italian Cheese: For the cheddar, substitute a combination of 1 cup shredded fontina (4oz), and half a cup of diced of shredded mozzarella (2oz).
  7. Macaroni and Swiss Cheese: Substitute an equal amount of shredded gruyere or emmenthal for the cheddar.
  8. Macaroni and Bleu Cheese: Add half a cup of crumbled gorgonzola (2oz), stilton, or roquefort to the cheddar and macaroni.
