Crock Pot Creamy Beef Pasta Delight This comforting dish combines rich flavors and creamy textures, making it a perfect family meal cooked effortlessly in a slow cooker. Ingredients 2 pounds ground beef 8 ounce block cream cheese, softened to room temperature ½ cup sour cream 1 cup ricotta cheese 1 teaspoon minced garlic 1 teaspoon dried parsley 2 (24 ounce) jars spaghetti sauce, divided use 24 ounce jar water 16 ounce box cavatappi pasta 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese Instructions Brown and crumble the ground beef, seasoning with salt and pepper. Drain excess grease and set aside. In a medium bowl, mix together the cream cheese, sour cream, ricotta cheese, minced garlic, and parsley. In the bottom of a 6-quart (or larger) oval slow cooker, add half a jar of spaghetti sauce. Evenly layer half the box of cavatappi pasta on top of the sauce. Pour the remaining jar of spaghetti sauce over the noodles. Add half a jar of water on top. Layer half the cooked ground beef mixture over the sauce. Dollop the entire cream cheese mixture evenly over the beef layer without stirring. Evenly layer the rest of the cavatappi pasta on top of the cream cheese. Top with the remaining jar of spaghetti sauce. Pour the last half jar of water over the spaghetti sauce. Finally, layer the rest of the cooked ground beef on top. Cover and cook on low for about 2-3 hours, checking at two hours since slow cookers vary in temperature. Stir the mixture to ensure the pasta is fully cooked. If needed, cover and cook for another hour. Then evenly layer the top with 2 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese. Cover for a few additional minutes until the cheese melts. Optionally, sprinkle with a little dried parsley for color.
