Crockpot Lasagna

I was looking for a new crockpot recipe, and remembered that there is such a thing as crockpot lasagna.  So, I googled Crockpot Lasagna, and landed on this recipe at southernfood.com.

CROCKPOT LASAGNA

1 lb. ground beef

1 large onion, finely chopped

2 garlic cloves, crushed and minced

1 large spaghetti sauce (about 28 oz.)

1 package no-boil lasagna noodles

16 oz. mozzarella cheese, shredded

1/2 c. parmesan cheese, grated

1 lb. ricotta cheese

1/4 c. milk

1 egg

Brown the beef, onion and garlic in a large pan.

Drain off any grease.

Add the pasta sauce into browned meat mixture and mix well.

In a separate bowl, mix the ricotta cheese, milk and egg.

Beat until thoroughly mixed and smooth.

Mix in the mozzarella cheese and parmesan cheese, so that all cheeses are well combined.

Grease the crock pot on the bottom and sides.

Put about 1/4 of the meat and sauce mixture in the bottom of slow cooker.

Put a layer of noodles on top of that (break or cut if needed).

Put about 1/3 of cheese mixture on top of noodles.

Repeat with sauce, noodles and cheese for another 2 layers.

Top with meat sauce.

Cook on low for 4-6 hours or until noodles are tender.
