Slow cooker (affiliate) meals are great for any gathering as well as weeknight meals. These recipes are going to be easy and many will be make-ahead or quick leave-alone recipes. This one is Slow Cooker Spinach Baked Ziti. I used gluten-free penne pasta but it can easily be changed to regular ziti. I hope you enjoy it and share it with your family and friends.

    Sabrina -- All my favorite ingredients. I'm assuming you can make this in a regular oven roaster, as I've given up on crockpots. First one was defective and the mechanism melted on my first try. New one broke in my recent move. I wasn't destined to have one, I guess.

      Sorry to hear that. Yes, of course, you can place it in a 9x13 size pan and make it. It does take about 45 minutes or so. I've used this recipe for baking as well. Enjoy.
