2 lbs ground beef
1 onion, chopped
3 carrots, chopped
4 stalks celery, chopped
2 (28 ounce) cans diced tomatoes , undrained
1 (16 ounce) can red kidney beans , drained (I skipped this, not a fan of red kidney beans!)
1 (16 ounce) can white kidney beans , drained
3 (10 ounce) cans beef stock
3 teaspoons oregano
2 teaspoons pepper
5 teaspoons parsley
1 teaspoon Tabasco sauce (optional)
1 (20 ounce) jar spaghetti sauce
8 ounces pasta

Directions:

Brown beef in a skillet. Drain fat from beef and add to crock pot with everything except pasta. 

Cook on low 7-8 hours or high 4-5 hours. 

During last 30 min on high or 1 hour on low, add pasta.

**This makes 12 servings, so you could definitely cut it in half if you are making it for only a few people.**
