How To Make my homemade slow cooker meat pasta sauce

  • Step 1
    Brown ground round in a saucepan. When almost cooked add 1/2 cup chopped onion and 3 cloves chopped garlic. After being cooked put in the Crock Pot.
  • Step 2
    Mary’s pasta sauce--- ALL is put in the crockpot on low- low and slow for at least 8 hours. We usually let it go longer. Salt is minimal as the grated cheese of your choice has salt.
