Ingredients

  • Crushed Tomatoes – (2) 28-ounce cans
  • Tomato Paste – (1) 6-ounce can
  • Onion – (1) Medium size
  • Garlic – (5) Cloves (or more if you like garlic, like me)
  • Dry Basil – 2 Tablespoons
  • Dry Oregano – 3 Tablespoons
  • Salt & Pepper – 1 Tablespoon (each)
  • Red Pepper Flakes – 2 Tablespoons

Instructions

  1. Dice the onion and place in slow cooker.
  2. Mince the garlic and throw that in too.
  3. Add the tomatoes and tomato paste.
  4. Give it a swirl.
  5. Add all of your dry ingredients EXCEPT the salt, pepper and red pepper flakes.
  6. Let it strew for about 4-6 hours on low.
  7. While this is cooking, brown your ground beef and set to the side.
  8. In the last hour of crockin’, add the red pepper flakes, salt and pepper.
    Don’t try to taste it to see if it’s spicy since it’ll be hot and may numb your tastebuds thus making you think it’s not spicy and you may add more. Trust me on this one.
  9. When it’s finished, add the ground beef.
  10. Let it cool completely. I just set it in the crockpot in the fridge covered overnight.
  11. Place in freezer containers.
