I have recently noticed several crockpot recipes, I got to wondering if I could make my lasagna recipe in my crockpot. I have an All-clad crockpot. Expensive..yes .. but so worth it!

It worked great!

olive oil
1 pound ground beef
1 small onion, chopped
a few portabella mushrooms, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
pepperoni
1 large jar of spaghetti sauce
ricotta cheese
1 t. salt
uncooked lasagna noodles
grated parmesan cheese

Saute onion and mushrooms in olive oil. Then brown the ground beef. Add the minced garlic and salt. (I did all of this right in the crockpot cast insert.)

I removed half of the mixture. Added a 1/3 of a jar of sauce. A layer of noodles. And a thin layer of ricotta cheese.

Then repeated the beef mixture, sauce, noodles, ricotta.

Then end with the last 1/3 of sauce. Topped with pepperoni and the parmesan cheese.

Slow cooked on low for 2 hours.
