    I just put pasta in the slow cooker as it is but it cooks quite quickly - faster than meat dishes for example.

    My experiments with pasta in a slow cooker weren't really a success. Since it's just a case of boiling the stuff up in water I just do it as needed now, stir it in at the last minute and serve up.

  • I cook the pasta and drain it, put it in tubs, then I add the sauce Ive cooked in the slowcooker. I wouldnt cook the pasta in the slowcooker. Also, this gives you a lot more room in your SC for cooking your yummy sauces.
