Italian Wedding Soup

I needed an Italian Wedding Soup recipe for my sister's party this weekend. I had never tried to make it before but thought it would compliment my meal well. I just picked a random recipe that got good reviews. It's a good base recipe that allows you to add things to your liking. I made mine in a crockpot.

Crockpot Mac and Cheese

This was really yummy! The left overs are good as well! Make sure you don't cook it too long though. I made mine for a party later in the day and of course my family was late so I had to serve dinner later than I had planned.

Slow Cooker Mac and Cheese

3 cups pasta
3 Tbl. butter, unsalted
8 oz. Velveeta cheese, cubed
1 ¼ cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
1 tsp. Dijon mustard
1 cup milk
½ cup heavy cream
1 tsp. salt
¼ tsp. pepper

Cook the pasta in salted boiling water for 5 minutes or until it is just under al dente. Drain and place in the slow cooker. Add the remaining ingredients to the pasta and stir until well combined. Cook on high for 2 – 3 hours stirring about every 30 minutes. The pasta should still hold its shape and the cheese is completely creamy. This makes about 6 servings as a side dish.
