Slow Cooker Ravioli Casserole

Use bow tie pasta in this ravioli casserole cooked in your slow cooker.

1 1/2 pounds of ground beef
1 medium onion
1 clove of garlic or 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
2 8-ounce cans of tomato sauce
1 14-ounce can stewed tomatoes
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
salt and pepper to taste
1 package frozen chopped spinach - thawed
1 package (16oz) bow tie pasta - cooked
1/2 cup parmesan cheese
1 1/3 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Brown beef, onion and garlic. Drain and place in slow cooker.
Add tomato sauce, seasonings, stewed tomatoes and cover and cook for 7-8
hours on low or 3-4 hours on high.

In the last 30 minutes turn the slow cooker on high if cooking on low temp
and add the cooked pasta, spinach and cheeses. I usually layer this with the
spinach, cheese and then the pasta on top and then top with parmesan cheese
again.
