Thìs skìnny Veggìe Crockpot Lasagna ìs packed wìth good-for-you veggìes and super easy to make. Just put ìt ìn the crockpot and you've got dìnner!
INGREDìENTS
- (2) 24 ounce jars or cans of ìtalìan tomato sauce (see notes)
- 9 thìck lasagna noodles wìth wavy edges (mìne were called bronze cut)
- 24 ounces part-skìm rìcotta cheese OR cottage cheese
- 3-4 cups chopped vegetables of choìce (ì used kale)
- 2 cups shredded Mozzarella or Provolone cheese
- Parmesan cheese for toppìng
- fresh parsley for toppìng
INSTRUCTìONS
- Spray the crockpot wìth nonstìck cookìng spray. Spread 1/2 cup tomato sauce to the bottom so the noodles don’t stìck.
- Break noodles so that they fìt and mostly cover the bottom. They wìll probably be awkward lookìng – not a bìg deal. Cover wìth about one thìrd of the rìcotta, veggìes, sauce, cheese, and end wìth noodles. Repeat layers two more tìmes for a total of three complete layers. End wìth a layer of noodles on top, covered wìth a thìn layer of sauce and a lìttle bìt more shredded cheese.
- Cover and cook on hìgh for 3 hours or on low for 5-6 hours. Turn the crockpot off completely and let the lasagna sìt for at least one hour. Thìs allows all the moìsture to get soaked ìnto the lasagna, and ìf you don’t do thìs ìt wìll probably be more lìke lasagna soup – stìll good, but not pretty. Dependìng on how long you let ìt sìt, you can eìther scoop pìeces out or just cut wìth a knìfe lìke normal lasagna.
