Instruction
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add zucchini, onion, bell pepper, carrots and salt. Cook for five minutes or until vegetables are just starting to soften. Add garlic; cook one more minute, stirring occasionally.
- Place ground beef and Italian sausage in a large mixing bowl. Add vegetables from skillet, then add breadcrumbs, beaten eggs, parsley and parmesan. Using clean hands, mix together until just combined. Form into a loaf shape and place in slow cooker. Place potatoes around the sides of the slow cooker (see video if necessary).
