TOPIC: Seeking information...

quote I read a review of a similar recipe on another site stating that the person put the pasta right in the crock pot raw and it came out cooked (and not mushy) at the end after 2.5 hours on low. Has anyone tried to do so with this or a similar recipe with good results?
thanks,
