Tips

If you desire more flavor in your mac n cheese, you can add some mustard and garlic to this recipe and adjust it to your taste.

Pre-shredded cheese does not work well in this recipe. It contains an anti-caking agent that can make this recipe gritty. Better to get whole cheese and shred it yourself.

Slow cookers can vary from one another, While some may cook slowly, others may be faster. So you may have to adjust the time for your slow cooker and set it to warm if your mac n cheese gets done earlier than expected.
