There's nothing we love more for low-maintenance, simple, yet flavorful weeknight cooking than utilizing the slow cooker. Simply combine the ingredients for the sauce, which feature turkey breast, canned kidney beans, tomato sauce as well as stewed tomatoes, mushrooms, green peppers, onions, celery, and garlic, and let them stew away for 4 hours until they're softened. Stir in the spaghetti and continue to cook until the pasta is tender—no need to cook the pasta separately. You can cut back on prep work by using frozen chopped onions and peppers, and store-bought minced garlic. Hearty Italian-inspired cooking doesn't get any easier.
