Ingredients:

1/2 lb elbow macaroni, cooked

2 eggs, beaten (I leave this out and it still tastes yummy!)

1 tsp salt

1/2 tsp black pepper

Cook on low 4-5 hours.

Sprinkle remaining cup of cheese over top a few minutes before serving.

Confession: It’s hard for me to remember to stop at 2 pm in the afternoon and boil macaroni noodles. I’ve found if I boil the noodles at lunch time, as I do in Make Supper at Lunch - or even the night before while making supper – it makes it so easy to toss these ingredients in the slow cooker at the right time. The point is to boil the noodles for crock pot macaroni and cheese while I am already cooking and making a mess anyway.
