Crock Pot Spaghetti Squash and Meat Sauce

June 15, 2016Uncategorized Standard

This crock pot meat sauce and spaghetti squash is cooked all in ONE pot.  It might just become your new favorite meal.  I was in a rush yesterday and wanted to make some crock pot meat sauce to serve over spaghetti squash for dinner.  After putting together the meat sauce, I was short on time so I just sliced the spaghetti squash in half, took the seeds out and put it in the slow cooker with the meat sauce.  It came out perfectly cooked and was an awesome and easy one pot meal!

This recipe made a little over 3 cups of meat sauce.

Ingredients:
Approx. 1.30 lbs ground meat
1/2 cup yellow onion diced
1 1/2 cup of chicken stock
3 tablespoons of tomato paste
1 tablespoon dried parsley, 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of fennel powder, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, 1/8th teaspoon of salt.

1 small spaghetti squash

Directions:
(1) Brown the meat over medium to medium-high heat in a large pan. Drain any grease from the meat and put it in your slow cooker.
(2) Add the onions to the same pot you browned the meat in (if the pot is a little dry – add a small amount of oil) Saute the onions until they are soft.
(3) Add the chicken stock and tomato paste to the onions and stir well. Deglaze the pan by scraping up any brown bits on the bottom of the pot.  Cook / stir for 1-2 minutes.
(5) Add everything in the pot to the slow cooker. Add all the spices to the slow cooker and stir.
(6) Wash and cut the spaghetti squash in half and remove the seeds and place it face down in the slow cooker.  If you have a large spaghetti squash and a small slow cooker, you can just cut the bottom of the squash off instead of cutting it in half.
(7) Cook on low for 5 hours.  Using a fork, remove the spaghetti strands from the squash to a plate.  Top the spaghetti squash with meat sauce and serve.
