This was a great and very easy recipe! I changed the recipe a little. I cooked the pasta first since many people mentioned that it turned out dry. I also added dry mustard, pepper, garlic powder and a pinch of cayenne. I also used 1/2 cheddar cheese and 1/2 light velveeta. I used whole wheat pasta as well. Will be making again! It's great for a busy night! I cooked it for 1 1/2 hours on medium and 1 hour on high.

This was overdone. I wish I had read the reviews before making it. I had to throw it all in the trash. The grand kids said EWWW.

Everyone really loved this recipe. I used extra sharp NY cheddar cheese (3cups) sharp cheddar (1 cup)and it was very tasty. Be sure to safe some to sprinkle on top. I was not sure if the recipe intended for the "chef" to precook the noodles or not, but I finally just got brave and poured the uncooked noodles in. Am I ever glad I did. We have five kids, ages 3 thru 12 and all enjoyed. The noodles cooked up beautifully, don't know why I worried! Not a crockpot dish to cook and enjoy at your leisure though, as it will overcook. You will want to time it out so that you are ready to eat when it is done. It overcooked in my crockpot a little so I would cut the cooking time back an hour next time. Delicious!

Ahhh the perfect comfort food! Okay now this is what I did: Mine was done in 4 hrs, instead of cooking spray I used buttered flavored crisco, added minced onions(because we love the crunch and flavor), used a 50/50 blend of sharp/mild cheddar, added cubed ham to make it a 'dinner' rather than a side dish, I did add 1 c. more milk-I was worried that the w/the addition of onions and ham would perhaps ruin it. This was perfect, noodles were cooked thoroughly-had just slight burning on the side of the crockpot. Super Supper. Thank You Branwyn!
