Spaghetti night just got a whole lot easier! With this Crock Pot Spaghetti recipe, the noodles cook right in the sauce, soaking up all that flavor while your slow cooker does the work.
Brown 1 pound ground beef in skillet, drain well and place in a greased crock pot.
Add all remaining ingredients (except dry spaghetti) 1 tablespoon dry minced onion, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard, 1 cup pasta sauce, 3 1/2 cups tomato juice and stir well.
Cover and cook on low for 5 to 7 hours or on high for 3 hours
Turn to high, stir in dry 1 1/2 cups Fideo cut spaghetti. Cover and cook for 30 minutes. Stir well and serve.
Notes
Keep extra tomato juice or pasta sauce available: If the pasta seems dry once it’s finished cooking, stir in ½ cup at a time until it’s as saucy as you like.
