CROCK POT ZITI WITH SPINACH, RICOTTA, AND TOMATO SAUCE
So easy and so good! Note: I made a very quick tomato sauce for this. You can use jar sauce if you'd like but since this sauce only takes 20 minutes to cook, I think it's worth the effort because it really does make a difference. I served this with a side salad and garlic bread.
