Ingredients

1 pounds ground beef
1 small yellow onion diced
2 teaspoons jarred minced garlic
1 green bell pepper seeded and diced
2 cups tomato basil pasta sauce
8 oz tomato sauce
15 oz diced tomatoes
1 cup water
1 teaspoon herb and garlic seasoning
6 oz pasta noodles

Instructions

Brown ground beef and add to slow cooker
Stir in all remaining ingredients except pasta which we will add toward the end
Cover and cook 2-3 hours on high or 4-6 on low (can let simmer on low up to 8 hours)
Turn the slow cooker to high and add the pasta in the last 30-45 minutes and be prepared to eat right away when it’s done so it doesn’t get too soft from overcooking

Notes

I used macaroni noodles but I imagine you could also substitute penne or another kind of pasta. Cooking times may vary.

To make ahead:

Cook & cool ground beef, add to freezer safe container or bag
Add all remaining ingredients except pasta
Store in fridge up to 3 days / freezer up to 3 months
Thaw fully before cooking

If you have leftovers:

Let cool, store in air tight containers in fridge up to 3 days
