Semi-Homemade Crock Pot Spaghetti Sauce image

This slow cooker spaghetti sauce starts with jarred sauce but becomes so much more with a few additions. It is so good with some garlic bread and a lettuce and tomato salad with a simple vinaigrette

Time 4h35m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 lb ground chuck
26 ounces garlic tomato and basil pasta sauce (we prefer Glen Muir)
1 small onion
1/2 green bell pepper
1/2 yellow bell pepper
1/2 red bell pepper
1/4 cup KRAFT Shredded Parmesan Cheese
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon basil
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic clove, divided
1 teaspoon salt, divided
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper, divided
2 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • finely dice green, yellow and red bell peppers and onions real small.
  • heat oil in large deep pan at medium high heat until hot.
  • add the diced vegetables and half the minced garlic, half the salt and half the pepper.
  • cook the vegetable mixture stirring constantly (like stir-fry) until slightly softened.
  • add the ground chuck to the pan with the vegetable mixture and brown until no longer pink.
  • drain and put in the bottom of the slow cooker and turn on low.
  • in a small mixing bowl add sauce, shredded Parmesan cheese (shredded works better than grated for this recipe), basil, oregano, the rest of the minced garlic, salt and pepper and mix well.
  • pour sauce mixture over the meat mixture in the slow cooker and mix both the meat and sauce mixtures together well.
  • cook on low 4-6 hours.
  • use over the pasta of your choice but we prefer spaghetti or fettuccine use a heavy pasta.

This sauce is amazing! It's so flavorful and rich. I served it with spaghetti and meatballs and it was the best spaghetti I've ever had. I will definitely be making this sauce again and again.
