My daughter made some mac and cheese in the slow cooker. I bagged the leftovers with the intention of making croquettes but she dumped it before I got around to it. I didn't want to use any eggs either.

I suppose you could use an ice cream scoop to scoop out some mac and cheese on to parchment paper and smash it down, then sprinkle some bread crumbs on to and stick it in a hot oven for 15 minutes or so. I was going to deep fry mine but that never happened. That's the breaks.
