This giveaway has ended. Congrats to our winner, Emily S.
I am an absolute fan of my slow cooker. I love love love how simple it makes my life, how many good and hearty recipes it feeds my family, and how it brings warmth to my home. So many of my slow cooker recipes call for tomatoes. That’s awesome for two reasons. First, I always have a healthy amount of Red Gold tomatoes in my stock pile. Second, I have discovered that heating tomatoes releases an important antioxidant, called lycopene. In the end, I’ve got a healthy meal ready and waiting after a busy, cool Fall day. Perfection!
Here’s a recipe you can throw together in a matter of minutes. It is family-friendly and perfect for dinner.
Slow Cooker Macaroni & Cheese
Servings:* 8 | *Preparation Time:* 15 minutes | *Cook Time:*
240 minutes
2 cups pasta of choice, uncooked
2 tablespoons butter
8 ounces processed American cheese, cut into cubes

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 cup low fat milk
1/2 cup whipping cream
1 (12 ounce) can evaporated milk
1 (14.5 ounce) can *Red Gold® Petite Diced Tomatoes With Green Chilies*, drained or 2 (10 ounce) cans *Red Gold® Diced Tomatoes & Green Chilies *, drained
Place the uncooked pasta in the bottom of a 3.5-qt. crock pot that has been sprayed with cooking spray. Add the remaining ingredients, except *RED GOLD® PETITE DICED TOMATOES with GREEN CHILIES*, to the slow cooker and stir until well combined. Cook on LOW for 4 hours.
Just before serving add *RED GOLD® PETITE DICED TOMATOES with GREEN CHILIES*; stir to combine
One lucky Redefined Mom winner will win a gift pack from Red Gold Tomatoes that includes 5 different varieties of Red Gold Tomatoes, an apron, and a wooden spoon. Plus, the winner will receive a $50 gift card to Jasper’s. Why Jasper’s? Because Chef Jasper Mirabile is a huge fan of Red Gold, too.!

The best way to make lasagna is in the slowcooker? It is always moist, you don’t have to cook the noodles, and easy to have ready when you come home from church.
