Ingredients

- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon seasoned salt (such as Lawry’s brand)

Instructions
- Boil the pasta in a pot of well-salted water just until al dente (or even slightly undercooked), about 1 minute less than called for on the box. Drain.
- Spray the liner of a slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray. Add all of the ingredients except reserve ½ cup of the grated cheese. Stir to combine. Sprinkle the reserved ½ cup of cheese over top.
- Cover and cook on LOW for 3 hours and 15 minutes – do not stir while it’s cooking.
- Slice into squares or spoon onto individual plates. Garnish with paprika and parsley just before serving.

Notes
- Prep Ahead: To prep the mac and cheese in advance, I recommend boiling the pasta the night before (and rinse it under cold water after draining to remove some of the starch and prevent sticking). Keep the cooked macaroni in the refrigerator overnight, along with the grated cheese and other ingredients. When ready to start cooking the next day, add all of your prepared ingredients to the slow cooker insert as instructed below.
