Equipment

  • Crockpot
  • Large saucepan for boiling the noodles
  • Colander
  • wooden spoon
  • Pasta server

Ingredients

  • 8 oz. package spaghetti noodles use the amount you need
  • 1 or 2 28 oz. jars spaghetti sauce
  • 20 frozen meatballs about5 meatballs per person
  • 1 Tbsp Italian seasoning

Instructions

  • If you are not using a disposable Crockpot liner, be sure to spray the inside with non-stick spray for easy cleanup.
  • Add the desired amount of frozen meatballs into your prepared Crockpot. About 4-5 meatballs per person should be enough. Save the rest in the freezer for another meal.
  • Pour the spaghetti sauce over the top of the meatballs. I often use two jars if I am feeding more than two people. Everyone loves lots of pasta sauce on top of the cooked noodles.
  • Then sprinkle the Italian seasoning on top of the sauce and stir.
  • Set your Crockpot to Low and allow to cook for about three hours. Remove the lid and stir once about half way through the cook time.
  • Once the meatballs and sauce are done. Let them simmer while you cook the spaghetti noodles.

Cooking the spaghetti noodles

  • Follow the directions on the package for cooking the spaghetti noodles. That will mean using a large pot to boil water. Bring the water to a boil, add the noodles and cook for about 12 minutes or until the noodles are tender. Drain in a colander. Sprinkle a dab of olive oil over the noodles and toss to coat.
  • Place the desired amount of spaghetti noodles onto your serving plate. Top with meatballs and sauce. Serve and enjoy!
