*From The Crockpot Lady's website:Use a 6 quart or larger crockpot, or cut the recipe in half. This makes a lot.Brown the meat on the stovetop, and drain well. Let it cool a bit.Chop up the carrots, onion, and celery. Add it to the empty crockpot.Drain and rinse the beans, and add them. Add the whole cans of tomatoes, and the pasta sauce. Add the beef broth. Add the salt, pepper, oregano, and Tobasco sauce. Stir in your meat.Cover and cook on low for 8 hours, or high for 4. When the vegetables are tender, stir in the 1/2 cup of dry pasta.Cover and cook for another hour on low, or until the pasta is tender. It will swell quite a bit.Serve with a bit of parmesan cheese if you have it.Number of Servings: 6Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user SAMILIA.
