Easy mac n cheese! Easy mac n cheese!

I used penne pasta instead of elbow Macaroni n I think it came out just as good. U can add bread crumbs to this recipe. If you choose too mid way through cooking cover mac n cheese with foil so the bread crumbs don't burn. U can also add bacon, ham or tomatoes before putting it in the oven as well. ;)

I loved the idea of crock pot mac~N~cheese, but most of the recipes I've found tell you to cook the pasta first. Don't bother(:
