Crockpot Spaghetti Sauce

This recipe makes enough for us to eat one meal, and freeze the rest for another meal! It is delicious and just a "throw in the pot and forget it" kind of recipe! It's a total winner in our house (especially since I'm essentially fixing dinner for 2 nights at one time!!!)

Crockpot Spaghetti Sauce

2 lb ground beef

2 onions, chopped (about 2 cups)

2 cups sliced mushrooms (6 oz)

3 cloves of garlic, finely chopped

1 can diced tomatoes, undrained (28 oz) 

2 cans tomato sauce (30 oz total)

1 can tomato paste (6 oz)

1 Tbsp. dried Basil

1 tsp. dried oregano

1 Tbsp. sugar

1/2 tsp. salt

1/2 tsp. pepper

In a large skillet, cook meat, onion, mushrooms and garlic. Drain and spoon into crock pot. Add remaining ingredients, stir, cover and cook on low for 8-9 hours! It's seriously THAT easy!!!

As a grocery note, we shop at Aldi, and they have diced tomatoes with basil and garlic! I love my spaghetti sauce "tomatoey", so I use two cans of diced tomatoes, and one can of sauce!

ENJOY!!!! (PS-We had already ate dinner after my picture was taken, so please excuse my dirty looking crock pot!)
