With Alfredo and spaghetti sauce, plus ground beef, spinach and three kinds of cheese, this main dish is super hearty and a true family-pleaser. When serving, be sure to scoop all the way down the slow cooker's ceramic insert to get some of each layer.—Deborah Bruno, Mira Loma, California

I made this for company last night and all LOVED IT!!! I used the creamy Classico Alfredo Sauce and I would make this anytime. Even my picky husband loved it.

Excellent! I didn't use the onion and garlic having used Classico Sweet Tomato and Basil Sauce. I also subbed sour cream for ricotta. It is very quick since it is cooked in a slow cooker. Very good.

With the amount of obese adults & children in America today, & with so many of them being diagnosed with type 2 diabetes from from poor eating habits as well, a recipe like this, with such high fat, high sodium, high carbohydrate, should never see print.

I made this as per recipe directions. I used a 7qt slow cooker and it was well cooked in 4 hours. Really, really good!

Excellant!! For anyone who wants to change it go to the low fat low calorie recipes instead. This recipe is great the way it is.

This is an exceptional dish.... however, if you want to watch your calories, carbs, fat and sodium...find another dish to make or start swapping ingredients.
