1 pound ground beef
1 jar (24 ounces) marinara sauce
3 cups uncooked pasta (such as rotini or penne)
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Directions
1. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned. Drain any excess fat.
2. In the slow cooker, combine the cooked beef, marinara sauce, uncooked pasta, and Italian seasoning. Stir to mix well.
3. Cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours, or until the pasta is tender.
4. About 30 minutes before serving, sprinkle the mozzarella cheese over the top. Cover and let the cheese melt.
5. Serve hot, and enjoy the comforting flavors of this simple yet satisfying dish.
Variations & Tips
For a bit of spice, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes or a diced jalapeño to the mix. You can also swap out the mozzarella for cheddar or a blend of Italian cheeses for a different flavor profile. If you have some fresh vegetables on hand, like bell peppers or mushrooms, they can be sautéed with the beef for added texture and nutrition. For a creamier version, stir in a half cup of cream cheese or sour cream just before serving.
