Today when we get home from work we will go home to the sweet aroma of lasagna. This afternoon I ran home and prepared everything to add to the slow cooker so that when we got home tonight I would not have to do much but make some veggies and spoon everything out on a plate to serve. These are my favorite recipes because I HATE to go home from a long day at work and start dinner. This way everything is ready to go when you get home :)
Here is the recipe, I haven't ever used this recipe before but how can you go wrong with cheese and noodles?
Slow Cooker Lasagna Recipe
Yield: 6-8 servings Prep: 25 min. Cook: 4-5 hours
Ingredients:
1 pound ground beef
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 can (29 ounces) tomato sauce - I used a little less
1 cup water
1 can (6 ounces) tomato paste
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 package ( 8 ounces) no-cook lasagna noodles
4 cups (16 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
1-1/2 cups (12 ounces) cottage cheese
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Directions:
In a skillet, cook beef and garlic over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Add the tomato sauce, water, tomato paste, salt and oregano; mix well.
Spread a fourth of the meat sauce in an ungreased slow cooker. Arrange a third of the noodles over sauce (break the noodles if necessary). Combine the cheeses; spoon a third of the mixture over noodles. Repeat layers twice. Top with remaining meat sauce.
Cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours or until noodles are tender.
