ALL-DAY MACARONI & CHEESE

The slow-cooker in my opinion is one of the handiest gadgets you can have in your kitchen. All you have to do is put your ingredients in it, place the lid on top and then forget about it until its time to eat.
This is one of our favorite macs and cheese recipes. It gets crusty and browned around the outside of the crock and creamy and yummy on the inside. All ages love it.
                                                             
8oz. dried elbow macaroni-cooked
16oz. (4 cups) shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 (12oz.) can evaporated milk
1 1/2 cups milk
2 eggs
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. black pepper
Spray slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray. Add macaroni. Reserve 1 cup of the cheese. Add remaining ingredients to macaroni. Mix well. Sprinkle the reserved cup of cheese over the top. Cover and cook on Low for 5 to 6 hours or until golden around the edges and set.

COOKS NOTE: I use my medium-size slow cooker for this recipe.
