Recipe: Easy Spaghetti Bolognese Slow Cooker Recipe #firststreetvip

This is such an easy recipe and so much better than pasta sauce from the jar. You can prepare this the night before or in the morning. When you are ready for dinner you just need to prepare a nice salad and boil the noodles.

Ingredients:

• 6 oz. bacon slices, cut into 1/2" pieces
• 1 sweet onion
• 1 1/2 tea. kosher salt
• 3 garlic cloves
• 2 lbs. ground beef
• 6 oz. tomato paste
• 1 cup milk
• 1/3 cup Parmesan cheese
• 1 lb. spaghetti

Directions:

First cook the bacon in a skillet and drain the fat.

After you drained the fat all in the chopped onion, salt and garlic. Cook for 5-7 minutes.

Then you will want to chop the bacon slices. Then add the ground beef and cook until it has browned.

Again, drain any fat. Then add the mixture to your slow cooker

Next add the tomato paste, milk and cheese. You will want to cook it on low for 4-6 hours.
