We love cajun spaghetti sauce night at our house. Directions: Set a skillet over medium-high heat. Add remaining ingredients to the slow cooker.
Stir and serve on desired noodles. I use bucatini noodles, they are a larger noodle with a hollow in the center and goes great with slow cooker spaghetti sauce. Can I use Italian sausage instead of ground beef? You can substitute one pound of Italian Sausage for the ground beef in this recipe. Cut the salt in half for the recipe in half if you use Italian sausage. Can I add frozen meatballs instead of ground beef? Or add chopped carrots, celery and mushrooms.
Want to make more magic in your crockpot? Homemade spaghetti sauce slow cooked to perfection. Just pour over noodles when you arrive home. Add the meat to the slow cooker. Add the crushed tomatoes, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, brown sugar, onion, garlic, oregano, basil, salt, pepper and red pepper flakes. Place the lid on the slow cooker. Cook on LOW for 8 hours or HIGH for 4 hours.
Do no open the lid during the cooking time. Serve with desired cooked noodles and top with parmesan cheese. Recipe Notes:Can I use Italian Sausage instead of ground beef? Can I use frozen meatballs instead of ground beef? Add soy crumbles to this recipe instead of ground beef if desired. Add a half cup of red wine at the beginning of the recipe if you would like a red wine flavored sauce.
