Notes

  • nsure the pasta is completely covered by the beef broth and other cooking liquid before cooking.
  • When storing leftovers, put them in single-serving containers to make reheating easier.
  • Then, if you like a thinner pasta sauce, you may want to add more broth to your crock pot Spaghetti and meatball sauce.
  • Break the dry spaghetti into thirds so it fits inside the crockpot.
  • Slow Cooker temperatures may vary depending on your make and model, check the internal temperatures of meatballs and tenderness of pasta before eating. You may find that your pasta dinner is ready in less time.
  • Storage – Store leftover spaghetti and meatballs in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week. 
  • There are 12 Blue Plan SmartPoints in one serving of this.
