When I was younger, there was a type of pasta called Juniorettes. Using that type of pasta, my mom always made a favorite summer/weekend lunch- which we called Juniorettes. However, all of a sudden, the Creamette company decided to quit making that type of pasta. In response, we stocked up on it, but we were 'afraid' to use it, and eventually the 7 or 8 boxes of Juniorettes became old and we had to throw them away. Despite the tragedy of what happened, we found that a similar pasta- Rotini- could be used to make Juniorettes. Confused? I hope not! Basically, even though we use Rotini, they are still Juniorettes in our hearts...:) Anyways, this simple pasta dish is an alternative to the usual Macaroni and Cheese as well as a favorite summertime meal when we are low on time, or just don't have anything else to make. Everyone loves it- and the hot tomato sauce makes it very filling. I hope you enjoy!

In college, choosing macaroni and cheese or juniorettes is always a first choice- But sometimes, it just doesn't cut it. Home cooked meals are very necessary every once in awhile, as you may know. Slow cooker recipes are great in apartments, especially when space is limited to prepare a feast. This takes only minutes to prepare, then let it cook while you study or rest for 2 1/2 hours. *Note: Veggie crumbles are a heat and serve vegetarian meat substitute- If you don't want this to be vegetarian, you can substitute 8 ounces ground beef, browned, for the crumbles.
