Equipment

  • Rice Cooker
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Wooden Spoon

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups elbow macaroni
  • 4 cups water or chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder optional
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese optional

Instructions
 

  • In the rice cooker, add the elbow macaroni, water or broth, and salt. Stir to combine.
  • Close the lid and set the rice cooker to the ‘cook’ setting. Allow it to cook until the liquid is absorbed and the pasta is tender (about 10-15 minutes). Stir occasionally.
  • Once the pasta is cooked, add shredded cheddar cheese, milk, butter, black pepper, and garlic powder (if using). Stir until the cheese is melted and everything is well combined.
  • If desired, stir in the grated Parmesan cheese for extra flavor. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Scoop into bowls and enjoy while hot.
