Day 7: Easy Lasagna

Brown 1 lb of hamburger and drain the grease.
Mix in 32 oz of spaghetti sauce & 3/4 cup water OR 26 oz can and a 14 oz can of tomatoes
Mix is 1 tsp salt and 1 pint of cottage cheese with a beaten egg mixed in.


Spread a thin layer of this sauce on the bottom of the crockpot. Layer with uncooked lasagna noodles. Do 3 layers (12 total lasagna noodles). Top with grated mozzarella and parmesan. Cook on low for 3-5 hours.

Review:
This is the first time I've tried to make lasagna in a slow cooker. It worked GREAT! And I loved the fact that you don't have to cook the lasagna noodles beforehand. This is a super easy recipe. I also used whole wheat lasagna noodles and it tasted very good. I suppose if you love cheese you could add 3 layers of mozzarella in there also. I just chose to limit the cheese to the top of the dish. I also used half hamburger and half italian sausage. Again, my meat was already cooked and put in the freezer so it was awesome to just take it out of the freezer, mix it with the other ingredients and throw it in the crockpot. It took just under 3 hours to cook.

So I tried this dish today and I have to say I am not a fan. I thought the noodles were way to soggy. They just ended up being a bunch of goo. I did enjoy trying it though! Thanks!

We liked this. My husband wanted some more cheddar cheese with the mozarella cheese. I didn't experience soggy noodles.
