A classic lasagna made easy.
Ingredients
  • 1 box lasagna noodles, unboiled
  • 1 tbsp. olive oil
  • ½ onion, chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 lb. ground beef
  • 1 tsp. Italian seasoning
  • 3½ c. marinara sauce, divided
  • kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 16 oz. whole milk ricotta
  • ¼ c. freshly grated Parmesan, plus more for garnish
  • ¼ c. chopped parsley, plus more for garnish
  • 4½ c. shredded mozzarella
Instructions
  1. In a large skillet over medium heat, heat oil. Add onions and cook until translucent, 3-4 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Add beef and season with salt, pepper and Italian seasoning. Cook until no pink remains and add 3 cups of the marinara, stirring to combine and cooking 2-3 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. 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. 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.
