This was based on a copycat recipe for Olive Garden’s Pasta E Fagioli soup. I feel a little bad still calling it that, since it lacks both pasta and beans, but it’s got all the hearty Italian flavor of the original.

2 pounds ground beef
2 pounds chicken chopped
6 medium carrot chopped
4 stalks celery chopped
2 medium zucchini peeled and chopped

Equipment

Instructions

Combine all ingredients except the squash in a slow-cooker. Cook on low 6 hours.
During the last hour, roast the spaghetti squash at 400F for 45-60 minutes or until tender enough to pierce with a fork.
When it’s cool enough to touch, shred it into noodles with the tines of a fork.
Add the noodles to the soup and heat through before serving.
