Slow Cooker Meat Lasagna Recipe

Happy National Lasagna Day! Lasagna has a long tradition and is believed to have been found in Ancient Rome, but its origins may be older than that. Lasagna is made in so many different ways. Alfredo sauce, tomato sauce and meat sauce. With beef, chicken or seafood, there are so many options. And when it comes to cheese, there are many possible flavor combinations.

Whether you call it a slow cooker or crockpot, it’s going to be less work for you.

Ingredients

• 1 lb. Ground Beef
• 1 Box Lasagna Noodles
• 24-32 oz. Spaghetti Sauce
• 3 cups Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
• 1 15oz. Container Ricotta Cheese
• 2 cups Cottage Cheese (if you don’t like cottage cheese, you can just omit it. It won’t affect the recipe at all.)
• 1 Egg
• 2-3 Tab. Chopped Fresh Parsley
• 1 Teas. Minced Garlic

Directions

1. In a skillet over medium heat, brown ground beef and drain grease. Pour into
medium size bowl and add spaghetti sauce, plus ½ cup water. (If you like it saucier
then add additional spaghetti sauce).

2. In a separate medium size bowl, mix the ricotta cheese, cottage cheese, egg,
parsley, garlic, and 2 cups of the mozzarella cheese.

3. Add 1/3 of the meat sauce into a 4-6 quart sized crockpot and spread around. Then add 1/2 of the cheese mixture and spread around.

4. Next, add 3-4 Uncooked lasagna noodles. Break them so they fit.

5. Repeat steps until you end with the meat mixture.

6. Sprinkle the top with the remaining 1 cup of mozzarella cheese.

7. Cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours.
