Migraines and Spaghetti Crock Pot

Yep, I got hit with a migraine this afternoon.  It hit me right after school and I could not get home fast enough.  I took my meds and the pain started to subside within an hour.  Thank the Lord for modern medicine.  Still feeling a bit woozy, but I'm alright.  So The Great Migraine Battle continues...

Laura 16 : Migraines 2

I'm still really happy with the results of the diet switch.  It's been 18 days and only having 2 migraines is heaven!  I don't know what exactly triggered today's migraine, but it will be okay.

In other news, tomorrow I'm trying out a new recipe...

Skinny Spaghetti Crock Pot

Sauce Ingredients:

1 jar spaghetti sauce (Watch the labels for sugar!)

2/3 box whole wheat spaghetti (uncooked)

1 c. low fat ricotta cheese

1 c. shredded mozzerella cheese

1 tbsp. Italian seasoning

1/2 tsp. sea salt

1/2 tsp black pepper

Turkey Sausage Ingredients:

1 lb. ground turkey

1/2 tsp. sea salt

1 tsp. garlic powder

1/2 tsp black pepper

1 tsp. dried sage

1 tsp. red pepper flakes

1/2 tsp. onion powder

1 tsp. cayenne pepper

1 tsp. dried oregano

Directions:

Combine turkey and seasonings to make the turkey sausage.  Cook turkey with seasonings.  When pink is gone, drain fat.  Add spaghetti sauce to meat.

In a large mixing bowl combine mozzerella, ricotta, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper.  Mix to combine.

In a slow cooker, spoon a layer of meat sauce onto the bottom, add a double layer of pasta (break to fit if necessary), top with cheese mixture. 

Repeat layering until the ingredients are all used up.  You should have 3-4 layers.

Cover and cook on low for 1 1/2 to 2 hours or until spaghetti is Al Dente (firm but not hard)

Serve with a side salad or veggies.  Enjoy!

I hope this recipe turns out as good as it sounds.  Let me know if you try it out! :)
