Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Easy Slow Cooker Lasagna.
Step 1
In a medium bowl, blend together ricotta cheese, 1 ยฝ cups of mozzarella, 2 tablespoons of Parmesan, an egg, and freshly chopped parsley until smooth and creamy.
Step 2
Set this delightful mixture aside.
Step 3
In a large skillet, cook ground beef over medium heat until browned, then drain any excess fat.
Step 4
Stir in spaghetti sauce and a splash of water, mixing until everything is well incorporated.
Step 5
Begin layering your slow cooker by spooning in 1 cup of the savory meat sauce at the bottom.

Next, add half of the uncooked lasagna noodles, breaking them as needed to fit, followed by half of the luscious cheese mixture.
Step 7
Pour 2 cups of the meat sauce over this cheesy layer.
Step 8
Repeat the layering with the remaining noodles, cheese mixture, and meat sauce, ensuring the final layer is a generous spread of meat sauce.

Cook on the Low setting for 4 to 6 hours, or until the noodles are tender and the flavors meld beautifully.

Just before serving, sprinkle the remaining mozzarella and Parmesan on top, cover, and let it rest for about 10 minutes to allow the cheese to melt into a gooey perfection.
