I was a little skeptical the first time I tried Slow Cooker Macaroni and Cheese, I mean my oven recipe was pretty darn good so why mess with it right?  But still I do love my crock pot and thought that I would give it a try- right around lunchtime I gathered everything up and tossed it in the slow cooker while I went about my day, planning an easy protein to go with it.  When I sliced up thick slabs of mac n cheese we were delighted to find tender noodles,creamy sauce, and loads of flavor! This will definitely be on our dinner rotation, and makes a great side for Sunday night supper. Go ahead and give it a try one night this week for dinner- so easy and tasty your family will beg for it again!
