[liverandonions]

Par boil macaroni noodles, toss in whatever shredded cheese you want with a can of cream of celery, add salt and pepper to taste mix and bake for 30ish minutes on 350

(Add a dash of onion powder and cook 2 hours, not 3.)

No.

Lol, you don't taste it. It just helps to make it creamy. It's even better when you top it with hot dogs

Come on now. We all know the only recipe worth making is grandma nuggetbrain's.

It's not a crock pot recipe, but is super easy.

Well her name is liverandonions for God's sake!

How does the pasta NOT get mushy?  Mac & cheese in the crock pot sounds gross to me even without the cream of crap and hot dogs (OMG).

[chickenlittle]

I make this one all the time, and it's super simple. It's not quite as creamy as a traditional recipe, but it's still yummy, and only one pot to clean up!

par boil noodles (the big box, 16 oz?,) coat crock pot w a bit of oil, toss in noodles, stick of butter, shredded sharp and mild cheddar (2-4 cups? i don't measure) large can of evaporated milk, cook on low for...however long. let's go w 4 hours. add more evaporated or regular milk as needed.

eta: our crock pot gets really hot so i cook it on low for half the time and then turn it to warm, otherwise the cheese will get grainy. and my husband just said he always adds more cheese when i'm not in the room, so add more cheese throughout cooking as well.

I like this one but it has creamed corn/corn in it as well. Mac n cheese corn is a favorite comfort food!

[tacoflavoredkisses]

This is my favorite and is a hit with all of my friends.

I usually add a small can of green chiles to add a good punch. But on it's own, it's phenomenal.

[liverandonions]

I think it's funny that 3 other recipes posted here are basically the same thing-cream corn, can of cheese soup, evaporated milk, but for some reason mine is the only one you all find disgusting. And to answer prior person the noodles don't get mushy because you under boil them so the soup helps cook them the rest of the way.

No, I think all of the recipes recommending a can of soup to be equally disgusting.

A stick of butter? Gross!

grandma nuggets recipe is the most delicious, creamy, amazing Mac and cheese I've ever had and it takes like 30 mins to put together and bake for another 30.  Pretty easy, it's actually a weeknight meal for us.

Listen, like heath and walla and bitch eating crackers, this recipe is part of ML lore by this point and if you don't know you need to use the search function and figure it out from context clues. This is the price of being part of our community.

Haha, yes, I figured everyone knew it by now.  But if you just google search grandma nuggets Mac and cheese, lots of posts come up! I think one where I asked for it is the first one!

[alzi]

I'm making this today. It's my specialty.

1 box cavatappi pasta
1 block cheddar cheese, shredded
Milk
Can cream of cheddar soup
Breadcrumbs

Cook pasta. Put in dish to bake-put aside.

Put shredded cheese in a pot. Fill with milk until cheese is half covered. Slowly heat and stir until cheese is melted. Then add can of soup and stir until cheese mixture is smooth. Pour over pasta and mix to coat. Sprinkle bread crumbs on top. Bake at 350 until top looks crisp. Try not to eat it all in one sitting.

Crockpot Mac & Cheese

8oz macaroni, cooked
2 cups extra sharp cheddar cheese, shredded (plus extra for top)
1 can (12 oz) evaporated milk
12 oz regular milk
1 tsp salt
1/4 cup butter, melted
2 eggs, beaten

Mix all together in crockpot, and sprinkle extra cheese on top. Cook on low for 3 hours.
