Crock Pot Macaroni and Cheese

One of the best kid friendly recipe that most adults love too is definitely mac and cheese. It’s one of my comfort food, the creamier and cheesier it is the better! Growing up, I have already tried different versions of this recipe but today I’m sharing with you one of family’s recent favorites, it’s a Crock Pot Macaroni and Cheese. You know how life is easier with crock pot, so this recipe is perfect for busy moms and a perfect recipe kids can make any time. I promise you this recipe makes our traditional mac and cheese taste so much better.

Crock Pot Macaroni and Cheese Recipe

2 1/2 cups elbow macaroni, uncooked
12 oz evaporated milk
2 cups water
1 1/2 cups milk
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/2 bar of cream cheese
2 cups sharp or extra sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
1 cup gruyere extra cheese for top or sharp or cheddar is fine

Freezer instructions:
I did not add the water into the bag prior to freezing it. I put add two cups of water on the bag prior to filling it. I did this because I didn’t want to freeze water.
Combine all the ingredients except the water and the gruyere in a small bag to freeze with the crockpot mac in a freezer size gallon bag without the water.
Ready to use it thaw it in the refrigerator overnight
Place it in the crockpot for 3 hours on Low

Make it now instructions
Spray down the crockpot
Place the crockpot on low
It will take around three hours on low until noodles are tender. I like mine to be a little bit cooked like in the images.
Then I sprinkle additional cheese and let it melt.
