Steps:
- Mix together the crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, stewed tomatoes, 1 cup of red wine, green olives, 4 teaspoons of sea salt, basil, oregano, paprika, and cayenne pepper in a slow cooker. Set the cooker to Low.
- While the cooker is warming up, place 3 tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, and cook 3/4 cup of sweet onion until the onion just begins to soften, about 2 minutes; stir in 1 clove of garlic. Cook the mixture for 3 more minutes before mixing in parsley and mushrooms. Reduce heat, and simmer the mixture for about 10 minutes. Stir in the brown sugar, and mix to dissolve.
- While the parsley and mushrooms are simmering, heat 3 more tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, and stir in the remaining onion and the sausage. Brown the sausage, breaking the meat up into crumbles as it cooks, about 10 minutes; season the mixture with white pepper and cumin. Pour 1 cup of red into the skillet, and scrape the pan with a wooden spoon to dissolve any brown flavor bits into the wine. Simmer for about 10 minutes; pour the sausage mixture into the skillet with the parsley and mushrooms. Bring to a simmer over medium-low heat just until all the ingredients have had time to introduce themselves to each other, about 10 minutes. Pour the sausage mixture into the slow cooker.
- Cook on Low for 8 hours to overnight. Add more red wine or water if needed to prevent the sauce from getting too thick and burning on the bottom.

MY CROCK POT SPAGHETTI SAUCE
This is a spaghetti sauce recipe that I've developed over time. You may alter the ground meat as you please; sometimes I use all ground beef when I find a good sale but half beef/half pork is pretty tasty. My crock pot is my best friend at times when I'm having busy days at work but still want a decent meal on the table for my family. I serve spaghetti with crusty bread and a romaine salad. Cook time is the crock pot cooking time. This recipe is for a 4 quart crock pot, halve it if your pot is smaller.

Steps:
- finely dice green, yellow and red bell peppers and onions real small.
- heat oil in large deep pan at medium high heat until hot.
- add the diced vegetables and half the minced garlic, half the salt and half the pepper.
- cook the vegetable mixture stirring constantly (like stir-fry) until slightly softened.
- add the ground chuck to the pan with the vegetable mixture and brown until no longer pink.
- drain and put in the bottom of the slow cooker and turn on low.
- in a small mixing bowl add sauce, shredded Parmesan cheese (shredded works better than grated for this recipe), basil, oregano, the rest of the minced garlic, salt and pepper and mix well.
- pour sauce mixture over the meat mixture in the slow cooker and mix both the meat and sauce mixtures together well.
- cook on low 4-6 hours.
- use over the pasta of your choice but we prefer spaghetti or fettuccine use a heavy pasta.
Tips:
- Use a variety of vegetables to add flavor and texture to your sauce. Some good options include onions, garlic, bell peppers, mushrooms, and zucchini. - Brown the ground beef before adding it to the crock pot. This will help to develop its flavor and prevent it from becoming dry. - Use a good quality canned tomato sauce. This will make a big difference in the overall flavor of your sauce. - Simmer the sauce for at least 4 hours on low, or 2 hours on high. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop. - Serve the sauce over spaghetti, pasta, or zucchini noodles. You can also use it as a filling for lasagna or manicotti.Conclusion:
