As is, this is a decent starting point. The changes that I made were to just sear the beef, before transferring to the slow cooker. In the same pan, I added a few knobs of butter (instead of olive oil), and sweated down the onion, with thin cut green pepper and white mushrooms. Layer this over the beef, and then the tomatoes. Slow cooked on high for 45 mins, added the macaroni and 1 can of tomato puree. Seasoned with oregano, basil, minced garlic, black pepper and a pinch of kosher salt. Stir well, and let simmer on low for 45 mins. I may try topping it in the bowls with mozzarella, and browning it quickly under the broiler, next time.
