Crock Pot Lasagna

By shawnanewton

This classic dish is prepared in a slow cooker with layers of ground beef, lasagna noodles, spaghetti sauce, cottage cheese, Mozzarella and Parmesan cheese... YUM!

Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef
• Lasagna noodles
• 1 jar spaghetti sauce
• 1 1/2 cups cottage cheese
• 1 1/2 cups shredded Mozzarella cheese
• 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Preparation

Step 1

Brown ground beef and drain. Spoon 1 cup spaghetti sauce in bottom of 4-quart crock pot. Mix remaining sauce with beef.

Place 2 uncooked lasagna noodles on sauce in crock pot. Spread 1/3 meat mixture on top of noodles. Spread 3/4 cup cottage cheese over meat. Sprinkle 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese over cottage cheese.

Add another layer of uncooked noodles, 1/3 meat mixture, the remaining cottage cheese and 1/2 Cup of mozzarella cheese.

Place another layer of uncooked noodles, meat mixture, and mozzarella cheese. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over top. Cover with lid and cook on low for 4 hours.

If cooked much longer, it gets a bit well done.

Tip: If your crock pot is retaining to much moisture you can remove the lid for the last 15 to 30 minutes of cooking.
