This amazingly cheesy and creamy mac-n-cheese gets a little spicy kick from our Petite Diced Tomatoes with Green Chilies. The best part is you don't have to 'cook' a thing! Pop all of the ingredients into your slow cooker and set on low for a truly satisfying pasta dish everyone will love!

This was the perfect dish for a potluck at work. I didn't use the tomatoes but kept everything else the same. This was a huge hit and the crockpot was scraped clean. Next potluck I'll double the recipe as not everyone was able to get a serving. I highly recommend this recipe. Read More

After 3 hours it began to turn to mush. But it was tasty. I added sea salt and garlic powder. Used a mix of Gouda cheddar & American. And left out the tomato. Very easy. Read More

Modified recipe. Used goat cheese instead of cream cheese for more tangy flavor. Added chili (lean beef red/green bell pepper onion 1/4 cup chili powder tablespoon of cumin cooked until beef is brown) to top and mixed together when finished. Yummy chili Mac and cheese. Read More

Thought this was really good but not as good as I was hoping for. It was a little bland so I added some pepper which helped. Maybe next time I'll add some bacon to change up the mushy consistency. Read More

It is very important to note that if you have a larger crockpot that this recipe will not work. Read More

My new favorite crockpot dish! I make a pot of this and take some to work every day and it lasts me three days (eight servings LOL nice joke). All my coworkers see or smell it and demand to know what it is. Read More
