Crockpot Spaghetti Casserole

This dish is not rocket science. It uses pre-cooked, store bought ingredients which makes it perfect for all of those busy moms out there struggling with time issues. Not that I am one of those moms. Ever. We are always on time, and I always make extravagant suppers with all organic, farm-fresh, ingredients. *Cough* What?? :)

I actually made homemade pizzas the other day, and used about 1/4 C. of Alfredo for one pizza, and 1/4 C. of spaghetti sauce for another, so I had these in my fridge and they needed to be used...because I am not one to waste food. *Cough* What??? :)


Here is what I used: Pre-cooked meatballs, 1 jar of spaghetti sauce, 1 jar of Alfredo sauce, and 1/2-pkg (about 8oz.) of spaghetti noodles. And you will notice I DID use whole wheat noodles, so you can curb your judgements a little..because now this is healthy. *Cough* What???

Step 1: Spray your crockpot with cooking spray.
Step 2: Add 1/2 of your spaghetti sauce, 1/2 your meatballs, and your noodles.





Step 3: Sprinkle with cheese.
Step 4: Add your Alfredo sauce
Step 5: Add remaining meatballs and spaghetti sauce
(Make sure you cover ALL of the noodles with sauce. I have a couple sticking up, and they were not soft)
Step 6: Top with remaining cheese.
Step 7: Cover and cook on LOW for 4 hours.




Voila!
