seasonings. Then add to the slow cooker.

- Use freshly shredded cheese from the block, it has less preservatives and melts better when cooking.

- This recipe can easily be doubled, just use a larger slow cooker.
- Times vary greatly on slow cooker brands so check your recipe halfway through to see how cooked the noddles are getting.
