This one was ultra cheesy and, if you haven't already guessed, my family loves cheese!
When I first heard about this recipe I was under the understanding that you could cook it in the crockpot without cooking the spaghetti noodles first. This time around I decided to cook them first. I didn't have time to make something else if it turned out bad. ha I promise to make it again and not precook the noodles to see if it works and I promise to post my findings! (If any of you do it before me please please post a comment!) I also had onions in this one and I will leave them out next time. I don't think they really added much flavor, and not one of us will eat them so it seems like a waste.
Heads up: I should have used my crockpot liners for this meal... it wasn't fun cleaning it.
I made this for my family of five eaters (the 5 month old doesn't eat yet duh). I also delivered a large helping for our two elderly neighbors. And STILL have enough left over for two more people. The total cost was around $8.
