To make this crock pot pasta recipe, I started by dumping two pounds of lean ground beef into a large saute pan over medium-high heat.

I added some diced onions to the pan with the ground beef.

I crumbled the ground beef well as it cooked.

Once no pink remained, I drained the grease from the pan.

I dumped the cooked ground beef into the bottom of my crock pot.

Then I poured two jars of marinara sauce on top of the ground beef.

I added some water, Italian seasoning, garlic puree, salt and pepper to the pot.

I stirred all of the ingredients together well.

Then I placed the lid on the Crock Pot and turned it on low.

After 2 hours of cooking time, I removed the lid and stirred the contents well.

I broke some uncooked spaghetti noodles into thirds and added them to the pot.

I stirred until the noodles were mostly covered with the sauce.

Then I placed the lid back on the crock pot and left it to continue cooking on low.

After 3 hours of total cooking time, I removed the lid and stirred the contents well again.

Then I added some shredded parmesan and shredded mozzarella cheese to the pot.

I stirred just until the cheese was melted.

Then I sprinkled some more mozzarella cheese on top and didn’t stir.

I returned the lid to the crock pot and left it to continue cooking on low until the cheese on top was fully melted.

I sprinkled some chopped parsley on top right before serving.

This cheesy spaghetti with ground beef has the texture of baked spaghetti.

This hearty spaghetti recipe is packed with flavour.
