Let make a cheesy bowl of macaroni and enjoy it within the comforts of our home. In this recipe, the mac and cheese are cooked in a crockpot, so the cheese gets all the time to melt slowly and mix with the macaroni and other ingredients. I had to share this will all of my readers. I personally like my mac and cheese to be saucy and creamier, so I tried this particular recipe, and it turned out to be perfect.

Trisha Yearwood’s mac and cheese is perfect for potlucks, family get-together’s, BBQ, football games, and holidays.This rich and creamy Trisha Yearwood crockpot mac and cheese recipe is here to brighten up your dinner tables and spread its soothing flavors all over the house. Again, not a requirement, but definitely saves time in the kitchen. I also recommend using a crockpot liner to make cleanup a breeze. You can also add a little extra salt, pepper, dried mustard powder, onion powder and garlic powder to taste. If you want a little more zing, add some extra paprika and pepper. For a creamier mac and cheese, you can add 4 to 8oz of cream cheese. You can also experiment with white extra sharp cheese, Parmesan, or any other favorites. Use about 2 1/2 cups of each and it gives this dish the perfect amount of zing. You can also make this with a combination of sharp cheddar cheese and pepper jack. Turning this comfort food classic into an entire meal. To add in some additional flavors, you can throw in some bacon, ham, shrimp, lobster, chili, or even some fried chicken. This takes a little bit longer but it makes all the difference in this Southern homemade macaroni and cheese.

The bags of shredded cheese just aren’t the same. The elbow macaroni has PLENTY of time to cook and it turns out perfectly!īut I DO recommend that you grate your own cheese. Again – I’m always looking for ways to save time in the kitchen. The original recipe also requires you to cook the macaroni before placing it in the slow cooker. The tried and true ingredients are macaroni, milk, butter, cheese and a few spices. Personally though, this recipe doesn’t need eggs. Trisha’s original recipe has 2 large eggs, beaten. Mix well and bake at 350 degrees F for 50 minutes. Important Note: You can also make this in the oven.

Delight the entire family with this creamy mac and cheese. This has become my go-to recipe when I need to put something together quickly with ingredients I almost always have on hand.
