Preparation

Step 1

In a 6-quart slow cooker, add in ground beef, tomato paste, garlic, 1½ teaspoon of salt, and pepper. Mix well so that tomato paste is fully incorporated into the meat. Even out the top with a spoon.

Layer by layer: Top with onions. Top with tomato. Top with basil.

Layer on sweet potato. Layer on zucchini. Sprinkle on the remaining ½ teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste.

Drizzle olive oil on top. Cook on high for 3 hours.

Remove pot from base. Allow to cool with lid partially open for 5-10 minutes. Serve.
