"I've made this twice now, and it's surprisingly one of the best plates of spaghetti and meatballs I've ever eaten. I'm not as hardcore-healthy as the recipe calls for: I use an egg instead of egg substitute, and maybe add a pinch of salt here and there. But it doesn't need much, because the flavors really stand on their own. I've also yet to try it in a slow cooker. I usually just sautee my veggies in a deep pot until tender, and then add the rest of the ingredients, partially cover, and simmer for 30 minutes or so." - dakotarussellYield: 8 Servings Ready in 6 hours, 30 minutes
