Week 30: Recipe #5--Crockpot Pasta and Cheese Delight

I found this recipe on about.com (see link below).  It was really easy to throw together, and not a lot of cleanup, which is always a plus in my book.  I'm not sure what to think about the taste.  I didn't NOT like it, but the Alfredo with the cream of mushroom soup AND the tuna?  Weird.  Not bad--just weird.  The girls both loved it, so it's worth making again for them.  I served this with a green salad and fruit.  Makes 4 servings.

You'll Need:

• 1 jar Alfredo sauce
• 1 can Healthy Request cream of mushroom soup
• 1 can (7 oz) white tuna or chicken, drained, or use leftover cooked chicken or meat
• 1/4 tsp. curry powder
• 1 to 1 1/2 c. frozen mixed vegetables
• 1 1/2 c. shredded swiss cheese (I used shredded cheddar--not a fan of swiss)
• 4 c. cooked pasta (macaroni, bow ties, shells)

Preparation:

1. Combine first 5 ingredients; cover and cook for 4 to 5 hours on low.  Add cheese to the mixture during the last hour.  
2. Cook pasta according to package directions; drain and add to slow cooker.
