So this one is just as described. It tastes like corn and macaroni. Which isn't all that great. We added bacon bits, garlic, and some black pepper which did a lot to help, but didn't tone down the overwhelming corn flavor. Doug even added siracha.
- 15.5 oz can whole kernel corn, drained
- 15.5 oz can creamed corn
- 1 cup uncooked macaroni
- 1 cup mild cheese of your choice, shredded
- 1 stick (8 Tbsp) butter, cut in pieces
- 1 Tbsp onion powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 3/4 cup milk
Spray interior of slow cooker with cooking spray. Mix all ingredients together in slow cooker. Cover, cook on high 2 1/2 hours or until macaroni is soft but not mushy.
For variation, add 1 cup cubed, fully cooked ham to add flavor and substance.
NOTES: You can see our additions listed above. Other suggestions would be to stir in some red onion, or at least top it with sliced green onions when serving. Possibly go with a non-mild cheese? Or a mixture of cheeses?
Serves 3-4
Total Time: 2 1/2 hours
