This classic casserole is rich and cheesy meatless main dish. I've never met anyone who didn't ask for second helpings of the cheesy dish.—Bernice Glascoe, Roxboro, North Carolina

My family is not generaly a fan of homemade mac n cheese was a hit. I used rotini shells and it was perfect.

I made this for Christmas dinner at my daughters house and it was a huge success. I recommend it to all and would make again and again. It's great for a crowd. I also forwarded the recipe to my granddaughter to make for her hubby.

I made this slightly differently. I let the drained pasta melt the butter and I left out the eggs so it wouldn't set up. I thought it was good but not as creamy as I would have liked. I might make it again with 2 cans of cheese soup.

This is my go-to crockpot mac & cheese recipe. So easy & delicious it comes out almost fluffy. Reheats beautifully the next day...that is if there is any left over! I have made it so many times over the years for birthday dinners, holidays. It's always requested, kids love it & I can't go anywhere without it in my crock-pot carrier. I put all the cheese in at once, skip the paprika and add italian style bread crumbs over the top before putting on the lid. The longer it stays in the crockpot the crunchier the outside will be, folks fight over the crunchy pieces. Add what you want to make it gourmet-jalapeno, ham, different cheese blends, bacon.

It tastes much better if you use velvetta instead of shredded cheddar, the velvetta melts much better.
