macaroni is just genius.
Not take long to cook at all. Actually, with football season just around the corner,
You could easily make a batch or two of this up for all of your friends and loved ones.
This is one of my favorite recipes since it's so versatile. While this is a meal
By itself, you can elevate a range of dishes just by adding this as a topping.
Wait, what? A topping. Now, while you think about that for a
Moment, let me provide you with a few tips and techniques to make this recipe
fabulous.
For this recipe, I added a few amber ale to the mix. This is a great, neutral beer
That'll add a little bit of sweet maltiness to the mac n' cheese without being too sweet,
Or imparting any other strong flavors like roastiness, fruitiness, or hoppiness.
Abita Brewing has some Amazing brews worth trying, and this one was no
different!
When it comes to the vegetable mix, you can use any vegetables you prefer. For instance, if you want more
of a buffalo chicken philly mac and cheese, add in mushrooms, onions, and green peppers. Your

Spicy, toss in some jalapeños.
If you are feeling daring, rather than using chicken for this recipe, then swap it out for some top sirloin. Oh,
yum! It truly is good; I've made it a couple times before since we eat as much chicken in this house.
If you want to really make this dish fun, add a packet of ranch seasoning mix or add some crumbled
Blue cheese to the peak of the dish.
Okay, above I said using this dish as a topping. I gave you a while to think.
Okay, hear me out now. I love to take this recipe and put it on top of a baked potato for a
family meal.
In addition to that, I love to make hamburgers and then put this on top of them as a garnish. It's so

Lastly, I like to take this recipe and place it between 2 pieces of bread, butter the bread, and then fry
it up. Yep, buffalo chicken mac and cheese grilled cheese. How amazing does this sound?

Last, if you are not comfortable putting uncooked noodles into your slow cooker, then simply leave them
Out and cook them on the side. 15 to 30 minutes before your mixture is done cooking, add the pasta and
give it a good stir. However, I have never had an issue with them fully cooking with just the slow cooker so
I wouldn't be concerned about getting raw noodles.
The toaster I used in this recipe was that the Crock Pot Cook And Carry 6 Quart Programmable slow
cooker. It had been such a favorite of mine, I made both a dessert and a dinner recipe to test it out for you
guys. This slow cooker was definitely my #1 choice for the cost category and capacity of 6 quarts under
$60. Definitely check out that full review to see why I liked that toaster and how it compared to
similarly sized and priced brands/models.
