Captain Mac

Homemade macaroni and cheese, who doesn't love that?  This is a great comfort food recipe that is made in the slow cooker!  We had lots of leftovers, and honestly, I thought it just got better and better!  Oh, and of course, it's gluten free!!

Enjoy!

PS: The recipe comes from my friend Cheryl Moeller's new cookbook, Creative Slow Cooker Meals.

CAPTAIN MAC

1 lb. gluten free elbow macaroni
6 oz. colby cheese, shredded
6 oz. asiago cheese, shredded
6 oz. sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
4 tablespoons butter
3/4 cup milk
2 eggs, beaten
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard

1)  Cook macaroni according to package directions until just shy of al dente.  Drain and transfer to slow cooker.  Mix in butter and cheese.

2)  In separate bowl, whisk together milk, eggs, salt, pepper and dry mustard.  Pour over macaroni.  Cover and cook on low for 2 to 3 hours.

NOTES:

~I didn't have asiago cheese, so I just used whatever I had on hand and it was delicious.  You can always mix up your cheeses depending on your taste or what you have on hand at the time!
