    Mama mia, this is good! Homemade spaghetti sauce doesn't have to simmer all day to be full of flavor. This version does just fine in only 4 hours.

    What You'll Need

    • 1 (25.6-ounce) package frozen meatballs, thawed
    • 1 cup frozen chopped onion
    • 2 (28-ounce) cans crushed tomatoes
    • 2 (14.5-ounce) cans organic diced tomatoes with basil and garlic
    • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
    • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
    • 2 teaspoons prepared minced garlic
    • 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
    • 14 ounces uncooked spaghetti
    • freshly grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

    What to Do

    1. Combine first 8 ingredients in a 6-quart slow cooker, stirring well.

    2. Cover and cook on LOW setting 4 hours.

    3. During the last 30 minutes of slow-cook time, cook pasta according to package directions, omitting salt and oil. Serve sauce over pasta; sprinkle with Parmesan cheese, if desired.
