Slow Cooker Pizza Pasta

Found recipe here, added a lot of additional ingreds to it


































INGREDIENTS: (7qt slow cooker)
1.3 lb lean ground beef
4oz pepperoni
1 onion, chopped
8 oz cubed ham
3 oz "real" bacon bits
8oz shredded provel
15 oz alfredo
~15 oz pasta/marinara sauce
3 c milk
1 can sliced olives, drained
16 oz rotini pasta
minced garlic

DIRECTIONS:
Throw ground beef in bottom of slow cooker. Break it up some.
Throw in chopped onion & garlic.
Throw in pepperoni, diced ham, bacon bits.
Dump in the milk, alfredo & pasta sauce. I used maybe a little over half of a 24oz jar of marinara sauce.
Top with half of the shredded cheese.
Cook on high for 2.5 - 3 hrs. (Didn't try cooking this on low yet).
Stir it up, if the gound beef looks cooked then add in the rotini.
Check on it after like 15 min, don't let it go too long or the pasta will overcook.
Add in the rest of the shredded cheese & the olives.
Serve with parmesan if you want.
