Nothing in this life is more delicious, more comforting, more pleasing than brilliantly made mac-n-cheese! Thank you for your recipe and the video...GOD bless your family.
You're right. The carnation milk and the cheese blocks makes the difference. My mom used both. The carnation milk adds creaminess but it also adds a certain flavor I can't describe but it's a game changer 👍🏼
There’s just something about that freshly grated cheese in mac and cheese. It’s so good. I love cooking with carnation milk. I use it in my sweet potato pies too . It sounds like your mother was a wonderful cook. Thanks so much for watching! ~Andrea
Thanks for the share. We found your channel recently, and ask why we did not find you sooner. We are seasoned citizens, who grew up in a very simple time period. You are sharing the tried and true simple comfort foods we grew up with. We praise you for bringing back so many wonderful memories of our Mothers, who have long passed. We wish Blessings upon your household, and Family. Side note: we would not mind your 1 year old, we would spoil further, cause that is what we do.
Hi Steven! I really appreciate your kindness. It makes me happy to hear that my recipes bring back so many wonderful memories. I love to make and share simple food for my family and friends to enjoy. Blessings to you and your household too. And you are welcome to spoil our baby any time! Have a wonderful holiday weekend! ~Andrea 😊
Great recipe! I like to use extra sharp cheddar as well: in fact, this past Thanksgiving I made the best mac and cheese ever with extra sharp cheddar and parmesan in equal parts. I always use evaporated milk in my mac and cheese as well. It's a Southern thing, I think!
Thank you! I haven't tried parmesan. I bet that was sooo good. I think I might try that next time. I totally agree about the evaporated milk, lol! Thanks for watching. Happy New Year! ~Andrea
My mom always cracks eggs separately and takes the white thing out of them too! hahaha In true "like mother,like daughter" fashion,I do the same thing. I am absolutely going to try this~1 of my favorite comfort foods,simplified...all thanks to Foodamentary. I'm so happy I came across this gem of a channel,and THANK YOU,Andrea!
Haha! Yeah, I don't why that white thing bothers me so much. I know it's harmless, but I can't help myself, lol! I'm so glad you enjoyed the video. And I'm so glad you ran across our channel too. There is so much turmoil in the world right now, your positive and sweet attitude is refreshing. Thank you so much for watching. I hope you have a wonderful day! ~Andrea
@@FoodamentaryAdventuresinFood What a kind thing to say,Andrea. It's so rare and comforting to come across people like you,especially during times like these. I tried the crockpot mac & cheese for dinner earlier,along with your baked beans recipe and bbq'd chicken. Oh my,what a gamechanger,and oh so easy! Thanks to you,I have a new (and the best way) to make mac & cheese! :) Thank you so much,Andrea!
Yay! I'm so glad you liked the mac and cheese and the rest of your meal! It sounds like you had a feast. Yum! Thank you for always being so kind. I hope you have a wonderful day!
I thought I’ve watched this video before but it’s on my feed as if I hadn’t. This looks so good and the best part is it looks very easy to make. Gonna share this with my teenage niece that is getting into cooking!! Thanks for sharing!
It's so easy to make! It would definitely be a great starter recipe for your niece. I hope she enjoys making it and that you all enjoy it. Thank you so much for watching! ~Andrea 😊
Hey Andrea! I’ve finally got caught up on watching videos. The mac & cheese looks yummy. I love extra sharp cheddar as well. Hope you had a great Christmas & hope your new year is off to a good start 😊
Hi Melissa, I'm really behind on watching videos too. I'm so glad you enjoyed the recipe! I had a wonderful Christmas and I hope you did too. Wishing you a very wonderful 2019! ~Andrea
Thanks for sharing this Andrea! I have made a few different recipes for crockpot mac and cheese but they all come out like box mac and cheese. Very bland and very "loose". This looks like my homemade baked mac and cheese😋😋😋So glad you shared it. Blessings❤
Hi! Thanks so much for stopping by! This taste just like baked macaroni. As a matter of fact, when I need macaroni in a hurry O use this same recipe and bake it for an hour in the oven. I sure hope you like it if you decide to give it a try. Thanks for watching! ~Andrea 🙂
Andrea, this is how I make my Mac and cheese but in the oven. Thanks for the crock pot version. Looks scrumptious. Sending love and hugs Sherry 💜💜💜✌️✌️
Oh my goodness, that looks amazing Andrea! This might fit my pantry challenge for January, LOL! Looks so good and I love doing it in the crockpot :) Have a wonderful and blessed day ---Stacy 😍💚
Yum! Smoking it on the bbq sounds awesome. We’re doing well. Thank you for asking! I hope y’all are doing well too. Thanks so much for watching! ~Andrea
I take white knot out of the egg also! Thought I was the only one! No matter what I'm making, no matter how many eggs. Dessert forks and a paper towel work best for me. Hee hee
Haha! Same here. Glad it’s not just me! I’ve never tried the dessert fork and paper towel technique. I’ll have to give that a try. Thanks so much for watching! ~Andrea
If your crock pot is smaller, you may need to cook it longer because there will be more mac and cheese in a smaller crock pot. I’d recommend thirty extra minutes and then check to see if the center is set. Thanks for watching! ~Andrea
I bought my stuff to make this. I definitely thought about boiling the noodles first so that confirms I’m at the right place lol. I bought like 4 blocks of cheese.
Hi Crystal! Thanks so much for stopping by. So glad you liked the recipe. I just subbed to your channel too. Looking forward to seeing more from your channel! ~Andrea 😊
Glad to see you crack eggs in a separate bowl, my home economics teacher taught me that years ago but all the videos I watch the eggs are cracked into the rest of the ingredients of the recipe.
Yes, my great grandmother taught me that you never know when you’ll get a bad egg, so I’ve always done it that way. Sounds like your home ec teacher and my grandma were like minded! Thanks so much for watching! ~Andrea
I’ve always read that the blood spot in an egg is very early fertilization of the egg. I’ve never seen this myself, but it does happen. The little white thingie in the egg is a very early embryo off a baby chicken!! (Yep..fairly yucky I agree & so is the blood spot! 🤢) They don’t hurt anything to eat them, but the idea of doing that just is a bit nauseating, right? Lol! If anyone had heard anything different about this egg thing, please let me know. Hugs to all♥️
Yes, that white thing and the blood both gross me out 😩. I usually find the blood spots in the organic eggs. I stopped buying them after finding blood in most of the eggs. Thanks for your insight! I appreciate you watching! ~Andrea 😊
Most of the time when I encounter something I dont know about, i try looking it up to find an answer. According to an article those stringy white things in eggs are merely there to help keep the yolks from damage by hitting anywhere inside the shell. One looks like an umbilical cord (but is not) and attaches the yolk with one end and the narrow end of the shell with the other. They are called the CHALAZA (KAH-LAY-ZAH), CHALAZAE (plural). They are made of protein therefore it's not dangerous to consume. I've tried taking them out before with my clean fingers then with a spoon but they are seriously slippery. Unless they're strained, you'll never win that battle either. Good luck. Good video.
Thanks so much for the information. I didn’t know the chalaza were there to keep the egg from getting damaged. I learned something new today. They are slippery little suckers though, lol! I’m so glad you enjoyed the video. Thank you so much for watching! ~Andrea
No, you don’t have to add the egg but it does act as a binder. It will still be just as tasty though. I hope y’all enjoy it! Thanks for watching! ~Andrea
I salt my pasta water and the cheese already has plenty of salt. Feel free to add any additional seasoning that you’d like. Thanks for watching! ~Andrea
I can't wait to try this recipe! Absolutely mouth watering! I agree with you regarding the packaged shredded cheese...it has corn starch to prevent sticking. 😒 (The white thing in the egg is called a spinnerette...this ensures the baby chuck remains right side up during the hatching process, regardless of egg position. Whaddya know...I guess I did learn something in h.s. biology class. Lol!)
Hi Trish! I hope you enjoy the mac and cheese. It's one of my favorites and it's always a hit at any gathering. Whenever I can shred my own cheese (read: when I'm not feeling too lazy 😁) I do. It just tastes so much better to me. Spinnerette?! I just learned something new today, lol! I always call it that white thing 😁. Thank you for letting me know. Happy cooking! ~Andrea
Slow cookers are supposed to make a person's life easier in the sense that people should be trying to make them one pot meals and not do a lot of pre-cooking. I tend to like videos more where people just dump the pasta in the crock pot uncooked.
I’ve made it in the oven in a 9x13 pan and baked it for 45 minutes at 350 degrees. You can also try it in the crock pot on high for about 2-2.5 hours, just keep an eye on it. Thanks so much for watching! ~Andrea
@@FoodamentaryAdventuresinFood Thank you so much. I am making it but mine started really getting brown on the bottom so I had to stir it. Could it be because I only used one box of noodles?
The recipe calls for half a box of pasta. Did you double all of the ingredients? If not, it maybe too much pasta and that might be why it’s getting so brown.
Thanks for the info! It's perfect for the winter. I use my crock pot in summer a lot too. It gets really hot here in Texas. Thanks so much for watching! ~Andrea
That turned out fabulous! I would add just a pinch, maybe 1/4t. of cayenne to it. My husband will only eat baked Mac and chs (I'll eat it any way I can get it!) But NO Velveeta🤢 I think he's gonna love this one.
Hi LeAnn! A pinch of cayenne would add a nice little kick. My husband loves mac and cheese any kind of way. He even loves the Velveeta version, lol! I hope your husband enjoys this recipe. Thank you so much for watching! ~Andrea
Nothing in this life is more delicious, more comforting, more pleasing than brilliantly made mac-n-cheese! Thank you for your recipe and the video...GOD bless your family.
Couldn't agree more! It's the ultimate comfort food. Blessings to you and yours too! ~Andrea

@@FoodamentaryAdventuresinFood It was VERY good! I used to do extra sharp cheddar + mild cheddar, but now I have found a new combo!👍
This looks so delicious. You made it so simple. I’m trying this for sure. 😊🎉
Hi hope you like it when you try it, Catherine. Thanks for watching and enjoy your day! ~Andrea

Looks yummy. I have a small crockpot can I still follow the same cooking time or it needs be cooked less time
If your crock pot is smaller, you may need to cook it longer because there will be more mac and cheese in a smaller crock pot. I’d recommend thirty extra minutes and then check to see if the center is set. Thanks for watching! ~Andrea
@@FoodamentaryAdventuresinFood okay thank you so much! My crockpot is a mini crockpot isn't okay to fill it to top

I have to try that I always bake mine
Sometimes I bake mine in the oven too. I use the exact same recipe and bake it in the oven at 350 for 45- 60 mins. Thanks for watching! ~Andrea
Can you add bread crumbs ? After
I’ve never added breadcrumbs to it before, but I’m sure it will work just fine! Great idea!
No seasoning such as black pepper, paprika or seasoning salt?
I salt my pasta water and the cheese already has plenty of salt. Feel free to add any additional seasoning that you’d like. Thanks for watching! ~Andrea
Ikr. Weird. Smoked paprika and onion powder is a must.
I'd try this.

Thank you! Happy New Year! ~Andrea
I can't wait to try this recipe! Absolutely mouth watering!
I agree with you regarding the packaged shredded cheese...it has corn starch to prevent sticking. 😒
(The white thing in the egg is called a spinnerette...this ensures the baby chuck remains right side up during the hatching process, regardless of egg position. Whaddya know...I guess I did learn something in h.s. biology class. Lol!)
