So I’m sure you’re dying to know how to win the amazing Slow Cooker and free Crystal Farms cheese that Crystal Farms and I are teaming up to give away. One great feature of Crystal Farms cheese, as listed on their website, is that it’s gluten free (like all cheeses), but also lactose tolerant! Yay! When you come back, the pasta will be cooked, there will be little to no liquid left, and the cheese will be melted in… and trust me, it’ll be oh-so-creamy, with plenty of flavor from the onion, bell pepper, and ham. Turn the slow cooker on high, and let it do it’s thing for half an hour. 30 minutes before you’re ready to eat, stir in the your pasta shells and your cheese. Cover the slow cooker, letting it do it’s thing on low or medium for 8-10 hours. Add in some milk, diced ham, salt, and ground red bell pepper. This will help make the mac and cheese as hearty and creamy as possible. Then, add flour, stirring it into the butter. Start with shell-style pasta, Crystal Farms butter, an onion, red bell pepper, some garlic, a little milk, some ham, and Crystal Farms Mac and Cheese Blend Cheese.ĭice your onion and red bell pepper, and mince some garlic as you melt butter in your slow cooker on high.Īdd in your onion, bell pepper, and garlic, stirring for a few minutes.
