Well, to say it has been a while is an understatement. A lot has changed since I last posted. My family and I moved from Charleston, SC back to Oklahoma to be near family, after we started a family of our own.
Well, last year around this time, I found out I was pregnant with baby number two. On September, 23rd, 2019, I had a beautiful baby girl. My husband got a job with the airlines, and was gone a lot. I was having to navigate an almost 2 year old, and new born without him, and he of course hated missing it all.
Well a few months later, he got a new job at the FAA, and is now home much more. I love it, he loves it, and the kids love it. He still has trips and is gone for a week or so at a time, but it isn’t constant. So basically, I have been busy building my family, and settling into a new routine. I, also, went back to work full time at the University I attended. Hopefully, I will post regularly again, and know I have said that before, haha, but I would like too.
Okay, so onto the recipe. I have really been into crock pot meals, having two kids and all, so here is a yummy, simple, and kid friendly dish.
Crock-pot Zucchini and Spinach Pasta:
Ingredients:
- 1 box pasta of choice (I like bowtie)
- 1 jar spaghetti sauce
- 1 large or 2 small zucchini diced
- 1 bag baby spinach
- 1 small yellow onion diced (optional)
Directions:
- Throw all ingredients into crock-pot and cook on low 8-10 hours or high 4-6 (high temperature crock-pots can burn the noodles so cook based on your crock-pot).
- You can also cook the noodles, according to package directions, before hand, and put it in your crock-pot or freeze it. If you freeze it, take it out of the freezer the night before and cook according to above.
