BEST SLOW COOKER MACARONI AND CHEESE RECIPE

So many of you loved my soul food and southern baked macaroni and cheese recipes! As I mentioned many times, I have 100s of recipes for mac and cheese. During the holidays, so many of you asked if I had a recipe for macaroni and cheese that could be made in the slow cooker. A few of you even asked if I could make a macaroni and cheese that required less expensive, and easier to find cheeses. I actually do have a bargain friendly Crock-Pot macaroni and cheese recipe! I can’t believe that it’s taken me this long to upload it, but I guess it’s better late than never right?

The most expensive ingredients were the cheeses. I kept it real simple and I used sharp cheddar, and colby cheese. I bought the cheeses in blocks instead of pre shredded because. I find that when you shred your own cheese, it melts better. If you want to use pre shredded cheese, you can – but I highly recommend shredding it yourself for a creamier cheesier macaroni and cheese.

This slow cooker macaroni and cheese recipe is perfect for the holidays as it'll make a giant batch of food all at once. The sauce is made with cheese and condensed cheese soup; together they end up being super rich and filling which complements the pasta.
