Sometimes I just like to put all the ingredients for a lasagne into a crock pot and wait for it to cook. This way I don't have to dirty a lot of pans to create one of my family's favorite Italian dishes.
Ingredients
1 pound of ground chuck
1-28 ounce jar spaghetti sauce
9 lasagna noodles
1-15 ounce ricotta cheese
2 teaspoons of dried Italian seasoning
3/4 cup of water
1-4 ounce can of mushrooms (optional)
3 cups mozzarella cheese (shredded)
Cook beef and Italian seasoning in a medium skillet over medium-high heat, stirring until beef crumbles; drain. Combine spaghetti sauce, mushrooms, seasoned meat, and water in a bowl. Layer thinly in bottom of lightly greased 4-quart electric slow cooker: 3 uncooked lasagna noodles, sauce mixture, cottage cheese, and mozzarella cheese. Repeat for each layer (around 3 layers). Cover and cook on high setting for one hour; reduce heat and cook on low setting for five hours. Can do ahead and store in fridge.
Serves 6-8

ReplyDeleteMmmmm, looks wonderful! I love things that can be cooked in the slower cooker. So much easier to clean and all the flavors seem to just taste better!
ReplyDeletewill have to try the slow cooker! pinning, thanks
ReplyDeleteBonjour,
ReplyDeleteIl est préférable de cuisiner ses propres lasagnes que de les acheter tout prêts au risque d'y retrouver de la viande de cheval à son insu...
Une recette qui me semble tellement savoureuse!
gros bisous
I just saw this recipe on Mr. Food on TV last night. I am definitely making this over the weekend. How easy is that! And my usual recipe for lasagna is so labor intensive. This looks so easy. :-)

I make lasagna often but never in a slow cooker. Sounds interesting. Thanks for sharing the recipe and enjoy the rest of your week.
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Sandi
This looks so good...!!
ReplyDeleteSlow cooker lasagne was a topic of discussion between friends the other day - yours looks quite delicious. Looks like it's not absorbed all the sauce - that drives me nuts when that happens. I'll save your recipe in my Ziplist recipes.
ReplyDeleteThanks!
