265 min8 servingsEasyItalian

Ingredients

  • 1,5 lb ground beef
  • 4 cup marinara sauce
  • 2 cup ricotta cheese
  • 2 cup mozzarella, shredded
  • 0,5 cup Parmesan, grated
  • 12 g lasagna noodles
  • 1 tbsp Italian seasoning

Instructions

  1. 1

    Brown the ground beef in a skillet, then stir in the marinara sauce and set aside.

  2. 2

    Mix the ricotta with half the mozzarella and the grated Parmesan.

  3. 3

    Spread a layer of meat sauce in the slow cooker, top with broken lasagna noodles, then dollop with ricotta mixture.

  4. 4

    Repeat the layers, finishing with sauce and the remaining mozzarella on top.

  5. 5

    Cook on LOW for 4 hours until the noodles are tender and the cheese is melted and bubbling.

  6. 6

    Let it rest 15 minutes before slicing to set the layers.

Chef's tip

Line the slow cooker with parchment for lift-out slices, and resting is non-negotiable — it stops the layers from sliding apart.

Suggested pairing

A medium-bodied Chianti and a crisp green salad round out the meal.
