Paula Deens Mac & Cheese

Basically anything Paula Deen is delicious because of all the butter! I have tried a couple different mac & cheese recipes and so far this is the best one that I have made. Two reasons why I love it! 1. Its delish! 2. It requires a crock pot! Which you should know by now that I love!!!
So by request from Ashley!!

Paula Deen's Creamy Mac & Cheese




  • 2 cups uncooked elbow macaroni (an 8-ounce box isn't quite 2 cups)




  • 4 tablespoons (1/2 stuck) butter, cut into pieces




  • 2 1/2 cups (about 10 ounces) grated sharp Cheddar cheese




  • 3 eggs, beaten




  • 1/2 cup sour cream




  • 1 (10 3/4-ounce) can condensed Cheddar cheese soup




  • 1/2 teaspoon salt




  • 1 cup whole milk




  • 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard




  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper





  • Boil the macaroni in a 2 quart saucepan in plenty of water until tender, about 7 minutes. Drain. In a medium saucepan, mix butter and cheese. Stir until the cheese melts. In a slow cooker, combine cheese/butter mixture and add the eggs, sour cream, soup, salt, milk, mustard and pepper and stir well. Then add drained macaroni and stir again. Set the slow cooker on low setting and cook for 3 hours, stirring occasionally.

    You Will enjoy this!

    Mmmm Mmm Good Homeade Chicken Noodle Soup

    I love coming home to a good hot & ready meal! For this reason I LOVE the Crock pot! You can make almost anything in the crock pot, even cakes! Well todays forecast was wet and dreary and cold. THe solution, Soup! So I searched some recipes and found one for my 2nd favorite kitchen gadget (1st is the kitchen aid!) All I had to do when I came home was boil water and cook the noodles! So fifteen minutes after getting home I am enjoying a delicious meal! Here it is!!

    Chicken Noodle Soup

    picture via

    2 chicken breasts (Frozen)
    2 cups water
    4 cups chicken broth
    1 tsp garlic powder
    3 Sliced Carrots
    2 tbs minced onion
    4 chicken boillon cubes
    salt & pepper to taste
    *3 tsp corn starch to thicken if desired

    1 pkg egg noodles


    Put all ingredients in the crock pot  except the noodles. Cook on low for 8 hours, a little longer won't hurt either! Use a fork and shred the chicken in the crock pot and cut up the carrots.
    Serve over egg noodles!

    Enjoy!

    The Whole Enchilada... Soup!

    Let me start out by saying that I was very nervous about this recipe. One it uses a can of pumpkin. To me Mexican food and pumpkins don't go together but I thought what the hey, let's give it a chance as it came highly recommended by a coworker.



    The whole enchilada chicken soup by Hungry Girl

    *also please note that this is my version of her soup. She does not use a crock pot or sour cream and adds other things in it!







    Ingredients

    3 cups fat-free chicken broth

    1 tbs minced onion

    3 cups green enchilada sauce

    One 15-oz. can pure pumpkin

    10 oz. frozen boneless skinless lean chicken breast

    1 cup sour cream (light, again I save where I can! :)...)

    1 cup frozen white (or yellow) corn

    Optional: dash hot sauce, or more to tasteOptional toppings: shredded fat-free cheddar cheese, crushed baked tortilla chips



    Directions:

    Throw all the ingredients in a crockpot and cook on low for 8 hours. Once soup is done take two forks and shred the chicken inside the crockpot.

    Makes 9 servings!


    I served over rice but my husband liked it better without the rice and served like soup.. go figure!

    This was good. It wasnt the best soup I have ever had. I think that it was missing something but I couldnt figure out exactly what it was. I think next time I will throw in a can of cream of chicken soup as well as some more enchilada sauce.. I don't think I added enough!



    Those are my suggestions! Let me know if you try them and what you think! Or just what you think about the soup in general! It is a very healthy meal and would be even healthier if I didnt throw in the sour cream but I can't help myself! haha...



    Enjoy!
