Crock Pot Slow Cooker Macaroni And Cheese Oamc Recipes

Steps:

• 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.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook elbow macaroni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until cooked through but firm to the bite, 8 minutes. Drain and transfer pasta to slow cooker.
• Add butter to pasta and stir until melted; season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle about 1/2 the Cheddar cheese over pasta and stir.
• Whisk evaporated milk and eggs together in a bowl until smooth; stir into pasta mixture.
• Whisk milk and Cheddar cheese soup together in a bowl until smooth; stir into pasta mixture. Sprinkle remaining cheese over pasta mixture; garnish with paprika.
• Cook on Low for 3 hours.

Steps:

• Cook macaroni noodles according to package directions. Drain. ( I usually slightly undercook them - until barely al dente).
• While noodles are cooking, combine soup, cheeses and milks in a crockpot. Stir to combine.
• Add cooked, drained noodles and stir well.
• Cover and cook on low for 3 hours.
• To Freeze:.
• Cool completely. Place in freezer bags in desired serving sizes. I usually do about 3 cups per bag. Enough for lunches, etc.
• Seal and freeze.
• To Serve:.
• Thaw in fridge. Reheat in microwave or place in baking dish that has been coated with cooking spray. Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until hot.

Steps:

• Whisk flour with 1 cup of milk until smooth.
• Mix everything in (very large) crock pot.
• Cook 3 to 4 hours on low, or until sauce comes together and pasta is tender. Stir every 30 to 60 minutes, if possible.
• Freeze leftovers in 2 serving portions.
• Reheat in microwave safe dish on defrost for 20 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes. At this time, the mac and cheese should be mostly defrosted. Defrost for another 10 minutes or so, stirring every 2.5 minutes or until hot. (I have found this is the best way to reheat frozen mac and cheese with no seperation of the sauce.).

Steps:

• Pour boiling water over the pasta and drain, then put everything in a slow cooker and stir well. Season, cover and cook on low for 1 hr. Stir again, put the lid back on and cook for another 30 mins until the pasta is cooked and the sauce has reduced enough to coat the macaroni.
• Leave the lid off and reduce for the last 10 mins if you need to, or add a splash more milk - this will depend on the size of your slow cooker and the brand. Serve with extra cheese.
