Hi everyone. I have to admit that this one sounds crazy. I was not a believer at first either. But it turns out that you can actually make a delicious lasagna in your crock-pot. It's also relatively easy compared to the standard lasagna.
I can't take credit for this one completely. We got this from a magazine called Real Simple and thought it sounded too interesting to pass up. I do, however, take credit for being brave enough to try it! It was well worth the 10 minute prep and 3 1/2 hour wait time!
Here is how it is done:
Ingredients
2 10 oz packages of frozen spinach (chopped)
1 cup of ricotta cheese
3/4 cups of grated Parmesan cheese
3 cups of grated mozzarella cheese
6-7 regular lasagna noodles
1 jar of your favorite Marinara sauce
Directions
1. Thaw and drain excess water from spinach
2. In a bowl, mix together the spinach, ricotta, and Parmesan cheese
3. In a second bowl, mix together the marinara and 1/2 cup of water
4. Spread 3/4 cup of the marinara mixture on the bottom of your crock-pot.
5. Top with two noodles (you have to break them to fit), 3/4 cup of the remaining marinara mixture, half of the spinach mixture, and 1/2 cup of the mozzarella.
6. Repeat step 5.
7. Top with remaining mozzarella cheese.
8. Cover and cook on low for 3 1/2 to 4 hours until noodles are cooked.
Enjoy! This is so easy and very delicious. I dare you to try it!
