How to Make Mac and Cheese Casserole for Two in a Crock Pot
Aunt Lou here.
This Crock Pot Mac and Cheese Casserole for Two recipe is definitely not your average mac and cheese. It is pretty simple to throw together, but the flavor of this delicious side dish is far from simple. The three cheese, mayo and sour cream come together to give you something that even picky eaters will love. (Truly, even though I am not usually a mayo person, I love this dish.) The ritz cracker just takes this casserole over the top.
(If this recipe sounds delicious to you, but you need to feed more people, I have you covered. You can find the original version of this recipe, with more servings, here.)
