Low Fat Crockpot Mac & Cheese Recipe for Busy Weekends

[dymplz8]

Does anyone here have a low fat macaroni and cheese recipe that can be made in your crockpot. I have so much cooking to do for this weekend :chef: and I'd like to just throw the macaroni together and not have to worry about it. Thanks.

This is the recipe I use - it's from All recipes – complete resource for recipes and cooking tips

INGREDIENTS
8 ounces elbow macaroni
4 cups shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
1 (12 fluid ounce) can evaporated milk
1 1/2 cups milk
2 eggs
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper



DIRECTIONS
In a large pot, cook the macaroni in boiling water 10 minutes, or until al dente, and drain.
In a large bowl, mix the cooked macaroni, 3 cups of the sharp Cheddar cheese, evaporated milk, milk, eggs, salt, and pepper. Transfer to a slow cooker that has been coated with non-stick cooking spray. Sprinkle with the remaining 1 cup of shredded sharp Cheddar cheese.
Cover, and cook on Low for 5 to 6 hours, or until the mixture is firm and golden around the edges. Do not remove the cover or stir the mixture until the mixture has finished cooking. Serve warm.
