This is a great crock pot mac and cheese recipe from Paula Deen that I started making several years ago. It’s a good one for church socials and family gatherings or just anytime you want great mac and cheese.
Crock Pot Mac and Cheese
Macaroni and cheese may be one of my favorite side dishes to make for any type of dinner. As long as there will be a meaty main course, you can bet that mac and cheese will be a welcomed addition to the table. It’s a kid friendly food too, so even your pickiest eaters will have something to munch on.
We all know how fabulous of a cook Paula Deen is, so when I saw a recipe that she had made for mac and cheese in a slow cooker, I knew I had to recreate it! Because it’s made in the slow cooker, it is one of the easiest side dishes you will have to make.
