I got this recipe from Paula Deen's show on the Food Channel, I revised it to my liking........it is sooo good! This is a double recipe, it fills up the crockpot. You can cut it in half. I like to buy the cheese in chunks and shred it myself, because it tastes fresher. I buy the ham cubes in a package, over by the ham in the meat section of the grocery store. The ham can be omitted, but it adds flavor and juciness to the creamy mac and cheese.
