Check out how easy our Slow Cooker Triple Cheesy Mac and Cheese is. Watch the video!!! Slow Cooker Triple Cheesy Mac and Cheese
from The Simple Kitchen Cookbook by Chad and Donna Elick
SERVES 8 | ACTIVE TIME 5 Min | TOTAL TIME 2 Hours 15 Min
1 pound cellentani pasta (also known as cavatappi), uncooked
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, sliced into 1-tbsp pieces
4 ounces cream cheese, cut into 1-oz pieces
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
3 cups whole milk
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 cups freshly shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 cup fresh shredded pepper Jack cheese
Pour the uncooked pasta onto the bottom of your slow cooker. I love my 6-quart for this recipe. Scatter the butter and cream cheese pieces over the pasta. Sprinkle the salt and cayenne pepper over the top and pour the milk and cream into the slow cooker. Stir to combine everything and smooth the pasta into one even layer coated in sauce.
Cover and cook on low for 1 to 2 hours, until the pasta is chewy (not quite crunchy, but very al dente). Your cook time will vary if you use a different pasta, so start with 1 hour and adjust from there. Stir once halfway through the cook time and be sure to smooth the pasta into one layer so it is well coated with the sauce. Once the pasta is ready, sprinkle on the cheddar and pepper Jack cheeses and stir to combine. The cheese will melt into the sauce to create the most luxurious creamy cheese sauce. Cover the mac and cheese and cook for 10 minutes, until the cheese is melted and it comes together. Stir before serving.
DONNA’S SIMPLE KITCHEN TIP: The cheese sauce will thicken as it cools. If you plan to hold the mac and cheese in the slow cooker on warm, add extra milk as needed to keep the sauce nice and creamy. Also, if you are going to refrigerate it to eat later, add enough milk to the pasta to thin out the sauce before refrigerating. That way when you pull it out, it will scoop easily and the mac and cheese will warm up perfectly in the microwave or on the stove top. We do this every week and portion it out for easy lunches.

ReplyDeleteI love your recipes, I will be making this mac and cheese recipe. My husband really likes slow cooker lasagna. He wont eat it baked anymore lol. I use your site a lot. The recipes you have that I tried have all been so good, easy to make and hit a homerun in our household. Its ideas I would have never thought of. I get up look at your emails and I know this is what to make today. Suggestion it would be so cool if you could do a sunday through Saturday menu plan, and a grocery list so I could just print and shop and cook. :) I follow you on facebook and also get the email. Keep up the good work.
ReplyDeleteDave, you totally made my day. Thank you for sharing that with us. I will start thinking about the meal plan and grocery list.
DeleteThank you again,
Donna

ReplyDeleteI love to make carmelized onions in my slow cooker! So easy, as long as you have 24 hours to spare, lol.
ReplyDeleteMy son's favorite is the triple mac & cheese. I love how your recipes are so rich and flavorful compared to others, but you make them so quick and easy to prepare. Your photographer is a genius! best food pics on the web. I can't help but want to make them just from the fab pics. I look forward to all the new recipes!!

ReplyDeleteThe Best Ever Simple Crockpot Pulled Pork Sandwich.
ReplyDeletePork chops are the bomb
ReplyDeleteI love slow cooker cooking! My favorite recipe is Cooked Pulled Pork. 11 hours on High with one can/bottle of beer, one can of beef broth, and a pork butt. Drain, shred, and add Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ sauce. I need a new slow cooker - I've worn out two of mine in 36 years of cooking for my family!! PS: I <3 your website!!
ReplyDeleteI love to make BBQ slow roasted pork ribs especially in the summer in my old crockpot because it doesn't heat up the kitchen! Your mac and cheese recipe is a winner in my book!
ReplyDeleteI love making Mississippi mud roasts in the crock pot. They are so good!
ReplyDeleteRoast
ReplyDeleteChili will always be my favorite thing to cook in the slow cooker -- either vegetarian or with turkey!
ReplyDeleteWell, I love your recipes, so I thought I would post one of my own favs - Lazy Piggies (like Golumpki or stuffed cabbage without all the fuss) - Cut up a head of lettuce, make the meatballs as you would for stuffed cabbage and put them on top of the cabbage, two large cans of tomato soup, half a can of water and half a can of milk - stick of butter cut into pieces on top - cover and cook on low....
ReplyDeleteMy favorite slow cooker recipe is tortilla soup. It's so easy and tasty!
ReplyDeleteI am a totally disabled rookie cook and love the fact that most slow-cooker / crock pot recipes are fairly easy to prepare and easy to freeze. One of my favorite recipes is a King Ranch Chicken Soup, spicy and a great taste. Plus it is good to freeze. I also collect and share your wonderful recipes.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite slow cooker recipes are things that help me later. I take 10 pounds of hamburger and put in the slow cooker. I stir and break it up occasionally. When it is all browned, I take sections and break it up with a mixer. Then I package up 10 bags with the hamburger and freeze. I then have 10 meals ready, all I have to do it add vegetables or chili or whatever I want to make. I do the same with chicken breasts. Cook and shred and package. Minimal mess. Certainly less than frying and I have the time to do other things. Love your 3 cheese mac and cheese. the best.
ReplyDeleteMy family favorite recipe is the pulled pork. Grmarq2@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteI love cooking roasts and soups.

ReplyDeleteThis looks delicious. I've bookmarked to make for my mother who loves mac and cheese (and is bedridden with dementia).
ReplyDeleteI've cooked very little in my slow cooker, but the past two things I tried were really good. Simple but tasty is: round or chuck steak, seasoned with Cajun spices and browned. Add water, onion, bell pepper, and fresh garlic. Cook until desired tenderness. Remove meat and reduce liquid; serve over rice.
Beef Stew & Chili are 2 things we love to make in the crockpot. I’m on the hunt for more great crockpot recipes as we have 2 young “active” kids and it’s easier to make dinner this way! I can get everything ready during morning nap & there’s no struggle to keep the kids out of trouble while it’s cooking!
ReplyDeletePulled pork, then pot roast and soups. ranj77@comcast.net

ReplyDeleteTrying it tonite as Lobster mac and cheese
ReplyDeleteI just put everything together, stirred to coat the noodles and turned on the crook pot. But . . . the pasta is not covered with the milk and cream. Is that ok? I had to do 2 1/2 times the recipe (office party). Help.
ReplyDeleteIm wondering if you used regular pasta, or the kind that is "No Boil", or if it matters. I have a box of the large elbows of the NO BOIL variety, but would like to know, for future, if I could use normal/regular pasta for this dish. My favorite crockpot recipe is Spaghetti sauce with chicken pieces, meatballs, or Italian sausage links. Whole tomatoes, onion, garlic, basil, parsley, oregano,cook for 4 hrs, add browned chicken pieces (whole with bone), cooked meat balls, or cooked and halved and cook for another 4 hours. MMM so good, and smells amazing! I missed the drawing, but I still wanted to participate. :)

I love this recipe for mac & - I made it once and then forgot where the recipe was, so I couldn't make it again. So glad it came back around to Facebook!

One yellow onion diced, 3 ribs of celery, two large carrots diced, one clove garlic minced & one pound ground beef cooked and drained (I wash the beef mixture with hot water)
One can each with liquids if doing pasta:
Kidney, pinto & black beans, title & southwest corn
One pkg of your fav taco seasoning
One tbsp beef better than Bouillon.
One small pkg of pasta + 1 cup of water
My kid will either make this with biscuits on top for a stew, inside corn taco shells, over cornbread or with pasta
I love any kind of soup in the slow cooker, but I can't WAIT to try this recipe!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Celeste! Enjoy and let us know how it goes!
DeleteHi just checking to see what cheese I can sub for the pepper jack. I LOVE spice but I don't want to give the little one a lot of spice so can you recommend another cheese to use? Is this recipe even "spicy"? Thanks so much!
ReplyDeleteMy husand and our race car pit crew love it when I make chili in the Crock-Pot. I can't wait to make this Mac and cheese recipe,the baked recipe I usually make takes so long to prepare by the time I make the cheese sauce then assemble it then bake it. A new crock pot would be great so the crew could have 2 Terrific meal choices.
ReplyDeleteAwesome! Enjoy and let us know how it goes!
DeleteOh the mac and cheese...the mac and cheese! Thanks for a chance to win!
ReplyDeleteYour description for the Mac & Cheese says use "corkscrew spirals", your recipe says cellentani or cavatappi, but your picture shows plain old macaroni. Call me picky (and I know one can choose for themselves), but I'm new to your website and want more consistency.
ReplyDeleteHas anyone made this Triple Mac and Cheese if so how do you get it creamy> I could not find those noodles so I used shells. Any suggestions would be apprciated
ReplyDeleteHas any one made this slow cooker mac and cheese? I couldnt find the noodles that were in the recipe so I used medium shells. Also how can I make it creamy as it was not. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
