Crockin' Mac and Cheese

This.Is.Beyond.Good. The flavor is not a little kids mac and cheese...in fact I served it to a 10 year old who didn't care for it. But, the adults all loved this as the Parmesan cheese adds a nice flavor. I didn't take a picture of this because it's mac and cheese. Seriously, it's cheese and noodles. How good could it look? ;)

Crockin' Mac and Cheese
Serves 4, but can easily be doubled. Best in a medium crock but if you double, use a large one.

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups skim or low-fat milk
12oz can evaporated skim milk
1 large egg, beaten
salt and pepper to taste
1 1/2 cups shredded medium or sharp cheddar
8oz elbow macaroni
2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese

Directions:

Coat the slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray. Combine the first 5 ingredients in the cooker and whisk until smooth. Add the cheese and noodles, gently stir with a rubber spatula to coat evenly with the milk and cheese mixture. Sprinkle the Parm on top.

Cover and cook on LOW until the custard is set in the center and the pasta is tender, about 3 1/2-4 hours. Do not cook more then 4 hours, as the sides will dry out and burn.
