Slow Cooker Spinach And Cauliflower Mac And Cheese Recipes

SLOW COOKER SPINACH AND CAULIFLOWER MAC AND CHEESE

Steps:

• Grease or line the insert of a 6-quart slow cooker. Combine evaporated milk, stock, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika in the slow cooker. Stir in processed cheese food and butter. Add macaroni and mozzarella cheese.
• Cover slow cooker with the lid and cook on High, stirring every hour, until cheese is melted and macaroni is cooked, 2 to 3 hours.

• Empty frozen cauliflower into a microwave-safe bowl and add 2 tablespoons water. Cover and cook in the microwave on high until hot all the way through, 5 to 7 minutes, stirring halfway through. Chop into smaller pieces if necessary. Add to macaroni and cheese in the slow cooker and stir.
• Serve immediately or divide into freezer-safe containers for individual servings.

SLOW COOKER CHEESY CAULIFLOWER

• Chop your cauliflower into florets and place in the bottom of your slow cooker.
• Pour water over cauliflower.
• Spoon the cream of chicken soup over the cauliflower. Do not dilute the soup.
• Sprinkle cheddar cheese over the soup.
• Cover and cook on low for about 4 hours or until cauliflower is fork tender.
• At the end of the cook time, melt the butter in a small saucepan. Add the bread crumbs and cook until golden brown; set aside.

• Sprinkle cooked bread crumbs on top and serve.

SLOW COOKER MAC 'N' CHEESE

Steps:

• Pour boiling water over the pasta and drain, then put everything in a slow cooker and stir well. Season, cover and cook on low for 1 hr. Stir again, put the lid back on and cook for another 30 mins until the pasta is cooked and the sauce has reduced enough to coat the macaroni.
• Leave the lid off and reduce for the last 10 mins if you need to, or add a splash more milk - this will depend on the size of your slow cooker and the brand. Serve with extra cheese.
