Ingredients

  • 2 (11 ounce) cans condensed Cheddar cheese soup

  • 2 ¾ cups water

  • 1 (16 ounce) package uncooked shell pasta

  • ½ pound andouille sausage, sliced into rounds

  • 1 cup sour cream

  • 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

  • salt and black pepper to taste

Directions

  1. Stir the condensed soup and water together in a slow cooker until smooth. Add the shell pasta and andouille sausage. Set the slow cooker to High; cook 2 hours, stirring frequently to prevent sticking.
