Crock-Pot Lasagna

We flip to this hearty slow cooker meal over and over whilst we're yearning some thing creamy and comforting. 


Though we do advise sautéing the aromatics together with the pork for max flavor, no boiling of noodles is vital! And we're speaking everyday dry lasagna noodles—no want to shop for the no-boil lasagna noodles

We flip to this hearty slow cooker meal over and over whilst we're yearning some thing creamy and comforting. Though we do advise sautéing the aromatics together with the pork for max flavor, no boiling of noodles is vital! And we're speaking everyday dry lasagna noodles—no want to shop for the no-boil lasagna noodles

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1/2 onion, chopped
  • 1 tbsp. olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • Kosher salt
  • 1 lb. ground beef
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 3 1/2 c. marinara sauce, divided
  • 16 oz. whole-milk ricotta
  • 1/4 c. chopped parsley, plus more for garnish
  • 4 1/2 c. shredded mozzarella
  • 1 (16-oz.) box lasagna noodles, unboiled
  • 1/4 c. freshly grated Parmesan, plus more for garnish
  • 1 tsp. Italian seasoning

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. In a large skillet over medium heat, heat oil. Add onion and cook until translucent, 3 to 4 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Add beef and season with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Cook until no pink remains, then drain grease if desired. Stir in 3 cups of the marinara until combined, and cook 2 to 3 minutes more.
  2. In a large bowl, combine ricotta with Parmesan and parsley. Season with salt and pepper and stir until fully incorporated.
  3. Grease the bowl of your slow cooker with a nonstick cooking spray or olive oil. Using the remaining marinara, spread a thin layer on the bottom of the crock pot. Next, add a layer of noodles (you’ll have to break some to make them fit), a layer of meat mixture, a layer of mozzarella, and a layer of ricotta mixture. Repeat until all ingredients are used up, ending with mozzarella. Cover and cook on low for 4 to 5 hours.
  4. Garnish with more Parmesan and parsley and serve.
