Crockpot Mac and Cheese

3 cups pasta, uncooked
3 TBS Butter
8 oz Velveeta Cheese, cubed
1-1/4 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
1 tsp. Dijon mustard
1 cup milk
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper

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

What did the Fish Heads think about this recipe?
We doubled the recipe since it we were using it as a main dish and it made a TON of food. So next time I'll only made a single recipe. The kids really liked it and ATE it! We did need to add more salt and pepper to it though - I'll increase it 1-1/4 tsp of salt and 1/2 tsp of pepper next time....yes, we'll be making it again.
