Crock Pot Lasagna

I made this 1 time before, and it was terrible. This time I made sure I went from step 1-2-3 and so on (MOM?) This time it turned out much better. I would rather with out the meant. However Rich would not eat it with out it.

1 lb. ground beef

2 garlic cloves, crushed and minced

1 large jar spaghetti sauce (such as Ragu in the1 lb. 10 ounce jar)

1 package 8 ounces lasagna noodles

16 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese

1 lb. ricotta cheese

1/4 cup milk

1 egg

1/2 cup shredded Parmesan/Romano cheese

Salt and pepper to taste

• Brown the beef, and garlic in a little oil in a frying pan. Drain off any grease.


• Add the spaghetti sauce into the browned meat mixture. Mix well.


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


• Beat until thoroughly mixed and smooth.


• Then mix in the mozzarella cheese and the grated cheese, so that all the cheeses are combined.


• Grease the slow cooker/Crock Pot with some vegetable shortening on the bottom and sides.


• Put about 1/4 of the meat and sauce mixture in the bottom of the crock pot.


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


• Put about 1/3 of the cheese mixture on top of that.


• Then repeat with sauce, noodles, cheese for another 2 layers.


• Top with meat sauce.


• Cook on low for 3 hours or until noodles are tender

Again sorry about the quality of the pic. I am not sure whats going on with that.
