You will love Mussels Marinara thanks to the slow-cooked red sauce. The red wine and basil make the sauce ultra luxurious – the perfect thing to accompany delicate mussels. Serve over pasta, with a glass of vino rosso (red wine) for a lush and tasty meal.

I used a jar of arrabiata sauce instead of the slow cooker marinara sauce and reduced the amount of mussels to 2 lbs. I served it over whole wheat fusilli pasta. It was delicious, and the perfect supper for two. It came together easily and quickly. This would be a great weeknight dinner. This will definitely be a dish I make on a regular basis.
