Crockpot Macaroni and Cheese

Ingredients:

    1. 8oz Macaroni Noodles
    2. Crock Pot
    3. 2 large Eggs
    4. 1 stick of margarine
    5. 2 tbsp canola oil
    6. 1 ½ cups whole milk
    7. 6-8 oz of grated cheese (this is by your choice, but I prefer cheddar and mozzarella)
    8. ½ to 1 cup of desired cheese grated (for topping)
    9. Pepper (Freshly Cracked)
    10. Salt (freshly ground)

Preparation:

  1. Grease crock pot heavily. Preferable with margarine or shortening
  2. Cook the Macaroni and drain once cooked (I like to add a bit of olive oil, butter, and salt to the water while the noodles cook.) Drain well.
  3. Mix eggs and noodles with the stick of margarine, canola oil, milk, and (6-8oz) cheese (turn on the crock pot on high during this phase).
  4. Add the above mixture to your crock pot
  5. add the ½ to 1 cup of grated cheese
  6. Cook on high 1 our
  7. Cook on low for 4 hours or until consistency of the macaroni and cheese is as you want it. For soupier macaroni and cheese cook for 3 hours and 45 minutes to 4 hours for thicker macaroni and cheese cook for 4 hours to 4 hours and fifteen or thirty minutes. This really depends on the hardware you are using.

Serve with meatloaf or chicken dish and green beans or peas. I prefer to make a grilled chicken dish that has been marinated over night in balsamic vinegar, allspice berries, whole pepper corns, and 1 cinnamon stick. The greens I prefer with this are a garden salad or fresh snap been roasted in garlic, butter, and pepper. I normally drink a pale ale or white wine with this if I consume any alcohol with it.
