Delish Mac And Cheese Slow Cooker

Cheese lovers, prepare for glory! This Slow Cooker Mac and Cheese is one cheesy dish!

Mac and Cheese is the ultimate comfort food. And if you ask me, slow cookers are the appliance equivalent of comfort food. Typically, you just poor in your ingredients, give 'em a stir, turn it on, and let the cooker do all the heavy lifting. Bonus points if you use slow cooker liners, which make clean-up a breeze! (Seriously, where have these been all my life?)

This particular recipe was originally post on our old blog by a former recipe contributor, and it's no wonder it was one of the more popular recipes. It's full of cheese and it makes a truckload! If you manage to keep from inhaling all its cheesy goodness, you'll have some delicious leftovers for the next day. And maybe the day after that. Or you could just make half a recipe.

One of the great features of this recipe is that you can customize it with your choice of cheeses. I used half sharp cheddar and half fiesta mix. But you could use any combo of cheeses that melt well. Your cooking time might vary, depending on your slow cooker.

Serve it as your main dish along with a salad, or have it accompany a protein dish like Niki's Beans and Dawgs. It would be an excellent choice for a potluck! However you decide to serve it, I think you'll find that you come back to this recipe again and again. It's a keeper!
