Slow Cooker Macaroni And Cheese

This Slow Cooker Macaroni and Cheese is creamy, comforting and perfect for potlucks. Best of all, it comes together easily in the crock-pot — even the pasta!

Hey everyone, Kelly here from Life Made Sweeter back again to share another easy dinner recipe! It’s officially fall which means bring on all the hearty comfort foods! Once the cooler weather hits, my kids crave for a giant bowl of mac & cheese regularly. They love a classic baked macaroni and cheese but with the busy school season we’ve had so far, we’ve been using our slow cooker a lot lately. This version couldn’t be easier since everything cooks right in the crock pot – even the pasta. You can boil the pasta first if you prefer but I chose to keep things simple by throwing the uncooked macaroni together with the rest of the ingredients. For the cheeses, I used sharp cheddar, Mozzarella and added some Provolone near the end. Slow cookers vary by brand and size, so be sure to keep your eye on this and stir every so often so that the pasta cooks evenly. Mine was perfectly al dente around 90 minutes in a 6-quart cooker. This slow cooker macaroni and cheese is perfect for camping, potlucks or those busy days when you don’t want to be tied down in the kitchen. Serve hot with some freshly chopped parsley and toasted panko crumbs.
