I love Allrecipes.com and I have a crockpot cookbook. I am looking for inventive mac n cheese recipes (with a type of meat like turkey or chicken in it, since my husband is a carnivore through and through). I was looking for something I can leave in all day, plus have leftovers I can use for a party on Saturday. I LOVE all cheeses, so the more inventive, the better (other than Velveeta, as yummy as it is).
it doesn't take all day to make but it will leave leftovers... I make mac n' cheese with polish kielbasa sausage in it... I also sometimes like to add either crushed broccoli or mixed veggies in it too... That is my mac n' cheese... Sometimes i use the box Velveeta shells and cheese but i also like to make it homemade with like the Mexican blend of cheese with cheddar... it is really good...
I have no idea how this one would work in a crock pot, but maybe you can give it a try. I make it the day before all the time and then just pop it in the oven right before we need it. It's definitely NOT health food. In fact we only make it at Christmas time...but it's gooood. It is a rich food and makes a lot, so we usually have some leftovers. We have added ham to the left overs and that was great. I imagine chicken would be good too though.

Hi R.,
My Mom makes one from the Paula Deen/Food Network receipe that is so good you can make "Yum Yum" noices while you eat it. Check their website for the specifics because I'm not sure of all the measurements. I know it has campbells cheddar soup and dry mustard. Good Luck!
