Description
This spaghetti sauce is so delicious you’ll be licking your plate. The funny part is that it only takes a handful of easy ingredients. Bonus–if you want to cook a spaghetti squash at the same time as the sauce you can!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (28 oz) can crushed tomatoes
- 4 Tbsp butter
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- Optional: 1 spaghetti squash
Instructions
- Add tomatoes, butter, onion powder, garlic powder and salt to the slow cooker.
- If using a spaghetti squash, cut the spaghetti squash in half crosswise. Scoop out the seeds and gunk with a spoon. Place the spaghetti squash halves in the slow cooker on its side.
- Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for about 4 hours, or on high for 2-3 hours (depending on your slow cooker and how hot it cooks).
- When the squash reaches your preferred texture remove it with tongs from the slow cooker. Use a fork to shred the flesh into long spaghetti-like strands.
- Use an immersion blender to blend the spaghetti sauce to desired consistency.
- Serve sauce over squash or spaghetti and top with parmesan cheese.
