Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef or Italian Sausage
- 1 Tablespoon minced garlic
- 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
- 2 24-ounce jars of good-quality Italian pasta sauce
- 16 uncooked no-boil lasagna noodles
- 15 ounces ricotta cheese
- 2 cups shredded Mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup finely-chopped fresh basil
Instructions
- In a skillet, brown the ground beef. Add the minced garlic and the Italian seasoning.
- Stir in the 2 Jars of pasta sauce.
- Spread 1 cups of the pasta sauce mixture evenly along the bottom of the slow cooker.
- Layer about 4 lasagna noodles (breaking them into smaller pieces as needed to fit) evenly over the sauce to cover the bottom of the slow cooker.
- Spread 1/4 of the ricotta cheese evenly on top of the noodles. It is ok if it is messy and uneven.
- Sprinkle 1/2 cup of the shredded Mozzarella cheese in an even layer on top of the ricotta.
- Layer 1/4 of the pasta sauce in an even layer.
- Repeat with another layer of noodles, ricotta, Mozzarella/Parmesan, and meat sauce.
- Continue repeating until all the ingredients are gone except the parmesan cheese and chopped basil. That should be 4 layers.
- Place the lid on the slow cooker and cook on high for 3-4 hours or on low for 6-8 hours, or until the noodles are tender.
- Turn off the heat and let the lasagna rest for about 30 minutes.
- Sprinkle the top of the lasagna evenly with the Parmesan and fresh basil. Serve.
