Mmm Mmm, good! I doubled the recipe, omitted olive oil, used diced fire-roasted tomatoes, chopped carrots instead of grated, 4 beef bouillon cubes (that's all I had) and put the ingredients (except for the pasta) in the crockpot. Cooked it on low all day, & added pasta an hour or so before we ate. - 2/11/10
