Crockpot Pasta 2

I love my crock pot. I can't believe it took me so long to start using it. This recipe was simple, adds quite a few veggies and the kids had no problems finishing their bowls...because it's pasta. Here is the original recipe.



Ingredients:

  • 1 lb ground turkey
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2-3 cups baby carrots
  • 3 cups spinach, chopped
  • 5 celery stalks, chopped
  • 1 can beans, rinsed and drained, low sodium
  • 1 can diced tomatoes, no salt added
  • 2 cups chicken or veggie broth, low sodium
  • 3 Tsp oregano
  • 2 Tsp parsley
  • 1/2 Tsp Sriracha 
  • 1/2 jar of organic spaghetti sauce, low sodium (or home made sauce)
  • 8 oz of pasta (I used a quinoa pasta)


Directions:

  1. Brown turkey.
  2. Add everything to the crock pot except the pasta. 
  3. Cook on low 7-8 hours or high 4-5 hours.
  4. During last 30 minutes on high or 1 hour on low, add pasta.
