Last night I did alittle prep for my supper tonight. On cold snowy day, with a fire in the fireplace, a big plate of spaghetti hit the spot. This spaghetti sauce was prepared in the slower cooker all day while I went to work. It was so nice to get home make some pasta and the sauce was already done.
Slow Cooker Spaghetti Sauce
1 lb ground beef
4 cans (14 1/2 oz) dice tomatoes (undrained)
6 cans (6oz) tomato paste
1 cup beef broth
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 tbsp dried marjoram
2 tbsp garlic powder
2 tsp dried basil
2 tsp dried orgeno
2 tsp dried parsley
1 tsp salt
1 bay leaf
Hot cooked spaghetti pasta
1. In a large skillet, cook beef until no longer pink, drain.
2. Place in a 5 qt slow cooker. Stir in the tomatoes, tomato paste, broth, brown sugar, and seasonings. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hrs or until bibbly. Discard bay leaf.
3. Serve over hot pasta.
I also served it with hot garlic bread to dip in the extra sauce on my plate. Next time I might add a bell pepper and mushrooms to enhance the flavor. It's just a suggestion you may want to try.
I hope you enjoy.
