servings
1 1/2
pounds lean ground beef
1
onion, chopped
1
clove garlic, minced
1
(15-ounce) can tomato sauce
1
can stewed tomatoes
1
teaspoon oregano
1
teaspoon Italian seasoning
salt and pepper, to taste
10
ounces frozen spinach, thawed (I used fresh spinach)
16
ounces bowtie pasta, cooked
1/2
cup parmesan cheese, shredded
1 1/2
cup mozzarella, shredded
Brown ground beef with onion and garlic. Put in crock-pot and add sauce, tomatoes and seasonings. Cook for 6-7 hours on low. Add the last 4 ingredients during the last 30 minutes of cooking and turn crock-pot to high. I added the fresh spinach, pasta, parmesan and 1 cup of the mozzarella and I mixed it all up really well. Then I added the last 1/2 cup of mozzarella to melt on the top.
