You can use any 4 quart slow cooker to make this dish or place an oven safe dish inside your 6 quart slow cooker for best results. My husband who is picky about mac and cheese, even liked it. We adapted this recipe from Gooseberry Patch’s 303 Simple & Satisfying Recipes. Almost too thick, so I added a little more milk at the end. This is a fantastic recipe It was gooey and creamy just like comfort food. We had a big sit down lunch, all 5 of us, and everyone filled their bellies while ohhing and awwing about the yummy pasta. I just snarfed a pan of this mac-n-cheese, and I, too, couldn’t believe how creamy it was. It’s creamy and comforting, with lashings of cream, cheese and perfectly cooked pasta some even come. I made sure to cook the noodles al dente, when I popped it into the oven my son finished his chores and pouted looking at the empty pot, he'd though he'd missed out, but he was thrilled to see it baking away in the oven. Mac and cheese is a classic, family dinner meal that will please everyone in the house. Of course, we won’t but it still doesn’t hurt to have a variety of solid mac ‘n’ cheese recipes on-hand to make when cravings. I didn't have Parmesan, or cheddar, just some Colby and Jack, and I didn't have bread or bread crumbs, but I went ahead with the modified recipe, buddy was charging through his chores! I doubled the recipe and baked it in a glass 9x13 casserole. If we could eat mac ‘n’ cheese every night for dinner, we would. I offered to my little boy that I'd make him ANY treat he wanted if he hurried through his chores Saturday morning, I was expecting cookies, cupcakes or bars, but he asked for "real mac n cheese, not from a box!" "Umm, OK." So I popped onto my handy allrecipes app, and once again you pulled through for me! I was really worried because every time I'd ever had homemade mac it was at a buffet with way over cooked noodles, or when a family member made it, it was just dried up noodles with melted and dried cheese, with milk literally poured over the top of it.
