    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)

    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!

    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.
