OK, I checked. Some seem to add pasta last and some add it all together. Let us know how it works for you.

BTW, I found this one and it looks really good.
Slow Cooker Pasta E Fagioli Recipe - Food.com - 165919

Thanks Lisa! My recipe is a little different - it comes out more like Olive Garden's - but this is very helpful to see how long to set the slow cooker for. I wasn't sure about that. I'm not going to add the pasta until the very end. Thanks again!

Yes it does. Smoked mozzarella meatballs - yum!

I looked up what it is because I had never heard of that before and found not only a few recipes but also some pictures. I just may have to make it someday! DH is very picky about pasta though and won't eat any "spaghetti" types. So I'd have to substitue the bucatini. He's a PITA sometimes!

Meat loaf tonight. I think I'll make some real fries in my new deep fryer to go along, that means gravy too!

I usually marinade my chicken in ... Italian dressing. Then take out from the marinade and put on a baking pan ( you might want to spray it lightly with oil).
The marinade will make the chicken super tender and juicy.
Don't leave it in the marinade too long. Overnight or even less is enough.
