This is so good and so easy! I think I actually like it better than cooking it on the stove. And it’s perfect for a day when you have a few minutes to pull dinner together in the afternoon. It only cooks about 3 hours (you can stretch it to about 5 if you cook on low). I love having dinner ready at dinner time, without doing any cooking right then.
I completely forgot to take photos of the finished dish, so you’ll have to make do with this ingredient photo.
I found the recipe at Crystal & Co. She used a jar of spaghetti sauce, but I didn’t have any, so I made up a quick homemade version. The hands-on prep is still super quick.
