I finally got the courage to make a lasagna recipe in the crock pot. Recently, I've been feeling like everything I've made in the crock pot hasn't turned out as good as I hoped (I didn't post my latest wild rice soup recipe), and I follow every direction. Sometimes.
This lasagna came out perfectly! I have to say, it tastes better than the time we made it in the oven...and it was way easier to make, and less of a mess.
Ingredients:
* 1 lb. hamburger meat, thawed
* 2 - 16 oz. jars of your spaghetti sauce
* 12 - 14 oz. lasagna noodles, uncooked
* 1 can diced tomatoes
* 12 oz. shredded mozzarella cheese
* Grated Parmesan cheese
* 1 tsp. parsley
* 1 tsp. oregano
* Salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
1. In a large skillet, brown the hamburger meat; drain.
2. Add sauce, diced tomatoes and seasonings; cook on medium heat.
3. In a large crock pot (I used a 6 qt.), cover the bottom with some of the meat sauce.
4. Break the lasagna noodles in half and layer on top of the sauce.
5. Spoon 2 cups of the meat sauce on top of the noodles and sprinkle mozzarella and Parmesan.
6. Repeat with sauce, noodles, more sauce, and cheese until you've used all of your meat sauce. Just be sure the top is covered with lots of cheese - it's the best part!
7. Sprinkle the top with more seasonings if desired.
8. Cover and cook on low for 5 - 6 hours.
Enjoy!
