  • 1 green bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 cup grated carrot
  • 1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
  • 5 cloves garlic, minced

  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Greek seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon dried oregano
  • 1 tablespoon dried basil
  • ½ tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground thyme
  • 2 cups chopped fresh spinach

Directions

Step 1
Put tomatoes in a slow cooker. Mix in onion, celery, bell pepper, carrot, mushrooms, and garlic. Add tomato soup, brown sugar, Greek seasoning, oregano, basil, cinnamon, and thyme; stir well.

Step 2
Cook on High for 4 to 6 hours or on Low for 8 to 10 hours, adding in spinach for the last hour of cooking.

Cook’s Notes:

I like to drain off the excess liquid from the Roma tomatoes for a thicker sauce, but you don't need to do this.
