Re: Crockpot Recipes?

(Anonymous) 2013-12-14 11:53 pm (UTC)(link)
I like making spaghetti sauce in the crock pot. I don't have a recipe, though, because I made up my own and never wrote it down. I'm also frequently experimenting or changing things based on what ingredients I happen to have in my kitchen. It usually goes something like this:

can of diced tomatoes (or frozen diced fresh tomatoes)
can of tomato sauce and/or can of tomato paste (good for making it extra-tomato-y)
1 white or yellow onion (will need to chop and saute this until it starts to get soft before adding it to the crock pot, or it will still be kind of crunchy even after cooking for 8 hours)
garlic, basil, rosemary, and oregano
maybe some black pepper, a little brown sugar, and a splash of red wine

I used to brown some ground turkey with the onion, but I usually just make meatless sauces now.

I usually add things like chopped spinach (frozen or fresh) and kale to the sauce, along with artichoke hearts, olives, and red bell pepper.

I usually mix it all up in the evening and cook it on low overnight.

That's very rough, so finding one online might be better, but some kind is crock-pot pasta sauce is a good staple recipe to have. It can feed a group or be divided into single serving containers and frozen for fairly easy meals - just cook some pasta and heat up the sauce!
