I grated fresh cheddar off the block, pre shredded is nasty stuff.
Left the eggs out,to prevent curdling,cooked in crockpot for hour and a half on low.
Poured in cassarole dish,topped with a little more grated cheese and panko bread crumbs,
put under broiler until cheese is melted and bread crumbs are crispy.
YUMMY!!!!! YUM YUM!!!!!

I always read prior reviews before trying a recipe. I loved this old fashioned style mac and cheese. I agree with a few of the reviewers that this dish did not curdle, but that appearance was from the eggs. I made a few changes and my family loved it and it was SO easy. I used a whole box of macaroni (I used multi grain. 2 cans (12 oz each of evaporated milk, kept the whole milk at 1-1/2 cups. 3/4 stick of butter, I should have doubled the salt, but will do so next time. I used 4 eggs and not quite double on the cheese. I used 16 oz of sharp cheddar and 8 oz of Colby Jack and grated the cheese myself. This is a true comfort food. Oh, I accidentally cooked it on high, but only for 1 hr. I cooked the pasta only part way prior to adding to the slow cooker, to avoid over cooked macaroni.
