what you need
- 1 jar favorite spaghetti sauce
- 1 lb. ground beef
- 1 mid-size container ricotta cheese
- 5-6 lasagna noodles (uncooked)
- 2 bags Kraft Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
make it
First, pour spaghetti sauce into a bowl and add 1/3 cup of water. Then grease the inside of your crock-pot with cooking oil or spray. Brown ground beef in skillet, then add entire container of ricotta cheese to beef, stir in.
Start layering in crock-pot: sauce first, then beef-ricotta mixture, noodles (uncooked - you'll have to break them up and layer... they will cook in sauce), sauce and cheese. Keep layering until you've used all of your beef-ricotta mixture. Top with cheese last.
Turn on low for 4 - 4.5 hours.
Notes
Preparation time is 20 min, cook time is 4 hours. This is better than baking your lasagna as it absorbs the flavors better in a crock-pot.
It's one of my family's favorites when we have get-togethers! I'm a working mom so I would throw this together the night before or run home and throw it together on my lunch hour - then dinner was waiting when we got home... very easy!
