Pizza Mac N Cheese For The Crock Pot Food

PIZZA MAC 'N CHEESE FOR THE CROCK POT

Steps:

• 1. In a large bowl combine all ingredients except the cheese; then stir in all but 2/3 cup of the cheese.
• 2. Spoon the mixture into a well greased 6 to 8 quart crock pot; sprinkle with remaining cheese. Cover tightly and cook on low for about 4 1/2 hours, or until macaroni is done.
• 3. Note: Sometimes I precook the pasta for 4 minutes in boiling water before using in this recipe...both ways work fine.

OUR BEST CROCK POT MAC AND CHEESE RECIPE

Steps:

• Spray your crockpot with non-stick spray.
• Rinse your uncooked pasta in a strainer and drain out all the excess water.
• Add your uncooked pasta to your crockpot along with your milk, cheese, mustard, garlic, salt, pepper, and cayenne. Stir everything well so all the ingredients mix together and make sure the macaroni is in the liquid as much as possible.
• Add your cubed butter.
• Cover your crock pot and turn on the low heat and cook for 1 hour. Remove the lid and stir all your ingredients before replacing the lid. Check the consistency because your dish may be done or require an additional 1-2 hours.
• Check your dish every half hour if it is not done and remember to stir when checking your dish.
• You will know your mac and cheese is done if the pasta is tender and the liquid is thick and creamy. Once you remove the lid, keep in mind the sauce will thicken even more as the mac and cheese sits.

HOMEMADE COTTAGE CHEESE (CROCK-POT)

Steps:

• Add the rennet liquid to the 1/2 cup of water, set aside.
• Heat skim milk to 85 degree F and maintain temperature for one minute.
• Add buttermilk and Rennet solution and stir well.
• Cover with towel and leave at room temperature (70 degrees F) for 12 to 18 hours. A firm curd will forms and a little Whey will appear on the surface. (To test for firm curd, remove a milk sample at a point near the edge of the pan or bowl with a spoon. The curd is ready when the coagulated milk sample holds its shape and the edges are sharply defined.).
• Cut the curd into 1/2 inch squares by passing a long knife through the curd lengthwise and crosswise of the container.
• Heat curd slowly over hot water until temperature reaches 110ºF.
• Hold this temperature for 20-30 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes to help distribute the heat evenly and keep the curd from sticking together.
• Note: If using a double boiler bring the water to boil and then turn off and watch closely, otherwise it may overheat and you'll have 'cheese'. In my crockpot I turn to high and keep a close eye on the temperature; stirring around the edges and bottom every 5 minutes. Once it gets up to 100 degrees, I turn it to low until it reaches 110, then turn to the keep warm setting. Each crockpot is a little differnt so watch it carefully. I've also read where the container with the curd can be microwaved on high for 1 minute, then stirred and let stand for 5 minutes; but I haven't tried this method yet.
• Immediately pour the the curd into a bowl, or collendar that is lined with cheese cloth and drain for several minutes; shifting the cloth occassionally to help drain off the Whey.
• Once the Whey has been drained off, immerse curd in the cheese cloth in a bowl of cold water for approximately 2 minutes.
• Drain the Whey from the curd and transfer the cheese to a bowl.
• Mix in salt and cream.
• Chill before serving.
