Ingredients:
1 lb ground beef
Lasagna noodles (uncooked)
1 jar (24 oz) spaghetti sauce
1½ cups cottage cheese
1½ cups grated mozzarella cheese
2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions:
Brown the Ground Beef:
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned and flavorful.
Drain any excess fat for a leaner dish.
Layer the Lasagna in the Crockpot:
Pour 1 cup of spaghetti sauce into the bottom of a 4-quart slow cooker.
Add 2 uncooked lasagna noodles, breaking them to fit as needed.
Spread one-third of the browned beef, ¾ cup cottage cheese, and ½ cup mozzarella cheese over the noodles.
Repeat the layers (noodles, beef, cottage cheese, mozzarella) twice.
Finish with a final layer of noodles, the remaining sauce, and top with the rest of the mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
Slow Cook to Perfection:
Cover the crockpot and cook on low for about 4 hours.
The lasagna is ready when the noodles are tender and the cheese is melted, bubbly, and golden.
Pro Tips for the Perfect Crockpot Lasagna:
Use no-boil lasagna noodles for a softer texture.
Swap cottage cheese with ricotta cheese for a creamier taste.
Add herbs like basil or oregano for extra flavor.
