MAKE THIS... TONIGHT.

*disclaimer: This is not figure friendly!
I am not a huge mac and cheese lover. However my husband is (It's the Southerner in him). I ran acrossed this recipe by Paula Dean. I tweaked it here and there and let me tell you.. It is YUMMY.. It is rich, and it is fattening but it is awesome. I love crock pot meals, this one you have to stir quite often but it is Heaven sent. Go get this stuff and make it. I doubled the recipe. That will be about a big crock pot full.

GO BUY THE STUFF BELOW, DON'T BUY FAT FREE ANYTHING, DOUBLE THE RECIPE AND EAT IT... RIGHT NOW!!!


CROCK POT MACARONI AND CHEESE





  • 2 cups uncooked elbow macaroni


  • 4 TBL butter


  • 2 1/2 cups grated sharp cheddar cheese


  • 1/2 cup sour cream


  • 1 (10 3/4 ounce) can condensed cheddar cheese soup


  • 1/2 teaspoon salt


  • 1 cup WHOLE milk


  • 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard


  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.


DIRECTIONS:



1. Put Crock pot on high and put butter in crock pot while Macaroni is boiling. Just to get it melted a little. (doesn't have to be entirely melted)



2. Boil the macaroni in water for six minutes. Drain



3. Combined all ingredients into crock pot and stir stir stir till mixed together (either melt the butter a little before you put it in the crock pot or cut it up into 1 inch pieces).



4. Cook on low for 2 1/2 hours. stirring occasionally.



Do not buy the pre grated Sharp cheddar. Grate your cheese yourself, it is just better cheese. AND remember this is all about the cheese... buy good cheese. But remember this is a rich rich recipe to begin with so don't go haywire buying richer cheese. Just good Sharp Cheddar Cheese works dandy..
