for those who DON'T make their own spaghetti sauce, what kind do you buy?  i think i'm getting tired of ragu traditional.  i like the more "italian restaurant" kind.

what's your favorite crock pot meal?

My family prefers Eric's homemade sauce but I am crazy about Classico Florentine. MMMM

i just picked up some classico to try because a couple people on here said it.

i dont remember the last time i ate spaghetti :/ i just dont ever eat pasta.

ang would DIE without pasta. i could usually take it or leave it, although i'm wondering if they mixed up our vials with an italian donor because right now i can't get enough. it's not about the pasta for me, but the sauce, right now.

our favorite is the roasted garlic sauce from trader joe's. I also like the basic basil one, but I throw in fresh oregano and garlic as well.

as for crockpot meals, I have only made crockpot ribs. but i do have a ton of crockpot recipes i can send you - most of them include dairy which we can't do so I haven't ever made them.

i have to find a trader joe's. people keep suggesting their stuff to me.

i'd love your recipes! i am a diary junkie.

We use Hunt's sauce and season it oursevles.

My favorite slow cooker meal is shredded chicken tacos - a jar of salsa, chicken breast, a can of rotel + 8 hours on low & voila! I serve it with soft & hard shells and all the taco accoutrements :)

ang said the only one she won't eat is hunt's. that's the one i grew up using and loved.

that chicken taco recipe sounds great. i will try it! thanks!

I don't have a preference on pasta sauce.

But my favorite crock pot meal is turkey chili. Although the pot roast I made in the crock pot on Thanksgiving was awesome, and I hate pot roast.

[kinsey_six]

my pot roast always comes out terribly dry. i don't know what i do wrong.

turkey chili sounds great. we made turkey sloppy joes last night.

Here is the pot roast recipe I used. It was simple and very moist. (I hate that word.)

One packet of italian dressing mix powder
One packet of gravy powder
One half packet of ranch dressing mix powder (you can use a whole one if you like ranch, but it is salty)
One cup water

Put the pot roast in the crock pot.
Mix all of the dry ingredients together in a bowl and then put them on top of the pot roast
Then pour the water around the roast (not on top)
Leave it alone

SO GOOD
I put carrots and parsnips in during the last hour of cooking and they were delicious too.

that is my absolute least favorite word as well, but there are times where it's the best one to use, unfortunately.

that recipe sounds amazing and i read it to ang. she wants to try it too.
