Crock-Pot Spaghetti Sauce is one of those recipes that I can go to anytime because my kids will always eat Spaghetti.  Not sure what  it is about a long stringy noddle with tomato’s and meat but they sure love it.   As with most Crock-Pot Recipes, we don’t cook the actual spaghetti noodles in the crock, as they have a bit of a tendency to go mushy.  We are cooking a huge batch of spaghetti sauce and then just cooking noodles up right before hand.  This recipe, whether you freeze the ingredients or cook it from scratch, will need to have cooked the sausage and hamburger before cooking the rest of the sauce.  For those that don’t eat sausage, you can do 2 pounds of hamburger, or if you prefer only turkey/chicken recipes you can do ground turkey/turkey sausage.  The sausage helps give the dish some bite without it being overpowering.

Instructions

1. Brown Ground Hamburger and Ground Sausage until done, straining grease. Pat grease off if freezing.
2. In Crock-Pot add meat, Onion, Garlic, Tomatoes, cheese, Spices including bay leaves. Cook on low for 8-10 hours.
3. When getting ready to serve you will need to add salt and pepper to taste. You will want to pull out the Bay Leaves. Be sure to have the noddles ready by then.
4. I used Italian Cheese on top of mine, but feel free to add what cheese you have around, the Italian cheese is a far superior cheese for cooking the sauce however.
