Slow Cooker Mac and Cheese Recipe

I just pop everything into the slow cooker in the morning and by dinner time, it is all set! This is perfect for those days when I am having friends or family over for dinner and don’t feel like spending a ton of time in the kitchen.

Who wants to spend all day cooking when you are trying to get ready for house guests?!

Say Cheese! This slow cooker Mac and cheese is the ULTIMATE comfort food. I have always been a huge fan of cheese, I put it on almost everything! This recipe here uses two kinds of cheese Mozzarella and Cheddar cheese, making it extra cheesy!

I spent less than $10 to make this recipe and guess what? It serves SIXTEEN people. Yes, 16 servings! Not only is it a bargain to make, but you can just go about your activities while it cooks.

Think of the slow cooker as a babysitter, it is basically watching your food for you!

This Mac and Cheese tuned out so creamy and flavorful! The bacon really gave this recipe the smoky flavor and accentuated the flavor of the cheeses. Bacon has become very popular in recent years, I noticed many dishes are being made with bacon.

I used to cook bacon fresh for every meal, but stores carry bacon already pre-cooked and packaged this is a real time saver! 

All in all, this is a recipe for all to enjoy. The ingredients are simple, I spent very little making it, and remember the crock pot is a home cook's best friend.
