Today’s freebie is THIS yummy Crockpot Lasagna (and let me tell ya, it’s not only super simple, but it is DEEEEEEE-licious!
Ingredients:
– 1 pound ground beef, browned
– 1 jar (or can) of your favorite pasta sauce
– 1 box uncooked lasagna noodles
– 1 1/2 cups shredded mozarella
– 1 1/2 cups (ie, one container) ricotta cheese
– 2 TBS grated parmesan cheese
Directions:
Spoon a few tablespoons of pasta sauce to coat the bottom of your crockpot.
Mix the rest of the sauce with your cooked ground beef.
Place a layer of uncooked noodles at the bottom of your crockpot (break up pieces to fill gaps but try not to overlap any noodles, if that makes sense)
Spread 1/3 of the meat/sauce mixture over the noodles, then half of your ricotta on top of that, then sprinkle some mozzarella and then some parm.
Place another layer of uncooked noodles and repeat with the meat, sauces and cheeses as above.
Put your lid on and cook on HIGH for at least 3 hours.
The only thing that truly needs to be COOKED in your crockpot are the noodles (since the meat was already cooked), so you can take a toothpick or a butter knife to test the noodle doneness at the 3 hour mark to be sure they are tender and cooked thoroughly.
Give that slow cooker lasagna a try and let me know how it turns out!
