I've been looking for a "tried & true" crock pot mac and cheese recipe. I have everything but the evaporated milk.....

Do you have dry powdered milk? I suspect if you mix it up thicker than regular milk, it would be an appropriate substitute for evap milk.

Went internet hunting and found this:
No need to pay a premium for those little cans of evaporated milk. You can make your own in two minutes or less.
Prep Time: 2 minutes
Ingredients:
2/3 cup non-fat dry milk
3/4 cup water
Preparation:
Mix the water and dry milk powder together. Then, use in place of the evaporated milk in any recipe.
Yield: 1 cup (8 ounces)DH aka Mad Hen

yummy! I make mine with a can of chedder cheese soup, half n half, and chedder cheese, so easy!
On days when I have NO desire to cook I toss in Veggies (sometimes chedderwurst, or keilbasa too) and you have a meal in a pot

OOH! Now that's different. I rarely use my crock pot, but I might have to pull it out for this one. Sounds like something my family will like!
Thanks for posting!

I made this recipe today and it was good! My husband liked it as well, and my sister just asked me for the recipe.

Thanks for bumping this
I'm going to add it to my next meal plan.
For those of you that have done this is the Crockpot on High or Low? I'm guessing High.
