I have just found a wonderful new recipe without having to cook the macaroni first. Here it is:

1 cup dry macaroni
3-4 tbsp butter
8-12 oz shredded cheese
1 quart of millk
salt and pepper to taste

Just put all of the above in a slow cooker and cook on high until soft and creamy. Stir several times to avoid sticking together and to the bottom. My rice cooker is a slow cooker and that's what I cooked mine in. It took about 2 hours. I also made this and added about 1 cup of chopped cooked ham. Once I added some dried minced onion. I made the milk from instant powered non-fat milk and it was great. Hope you like it.

That sounds great and it doesn't make a whole lot, like most things that go in the slow cookers. Wonder if it will fit in those new small ones that everyone got for Christmas last year.
