Slow Cooker Shrimp Marinara

Shrimp are added near the end of the slow cooker marinara sauce’s cooking time. Utilize peeled and cooked shrimp or thawed frozen cooked shrimp.

It is a basic marinara sauce flavored with either fresh or dried basil and, if desired, oregano. Always, but optionally, we add crushed red pepper flakes to the pasta sauce. Spaghetti or angel hair pasta is served with marinara sauce. Alternatively, do it over polenta or bow-tie pasta.
