Crock Pot Mac and Cheese Recipe

This crock pot mac and cheese is one of my favorite recipes.  I love mac and cheese and have been making a homemade recipe for years – it is even a staple at our Thanksgiving dinner. Recently I decided to try my recipe in the crock pot and realized it is not only super easy, but tastes AMAZING too!  I will always use this recipe from now – I can’t believe I have waited this long to try it!

The ingredients in this mac and cheese might seem a little a little different than other recipes, but trust me it is amazing – my family typically likes recipes that are more plain and everyone loves this.  

If you like mac and cheese you MUST try this!

Ingredients:

• 1 cup elbow macaroni
• ¼ cup butter
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tsp pepper
• ¼ cup flour
• 1 ½ cup milk
• 1 small onion, chopped
• Cheddar Cheese – Cracker Barrel Extra Sharp Cheddar Cheese, 8 oz – I used half the block
• Baby Swiss – Sargento Sliced Baby Swiss Cheese – I used half the slices
• Provolone – Sargento Sliced Provolone Cheese – I used half the slices

Directions:

1. Start by boiling the macaroni – about 4-5 minutes.  Since it is going into the crock pot you don’t want it to overcook.
2. Cut the cheddar, swiss and provolone into small pieces. 
3. Spray the crock pot with cooking spray.
4. Add cooked macaroni to the bottom of the crock pot.
5. Layer cheese, butter, milk, four, salt, pepper and onion over the macaroni.
6. Cook on high for 1 hr – 1 hr 15 mins, stirring about every 20 mins.
