Crockpot Lasagna

This is so good you'll want to climb into it! It's super easy only set back is cleaning out the crockpot after, but hey it helps burn those calories. If you don't want to scrub it clean try those handy crockpot liners.

I usually double this recipe since its so good and leftovers are great for lunches or  easy dinner.
This will feed 4-6 people.

Ingredients:
Ground beef, as much or little as you like (optional)
28oz of spaghetti sauce (homemade or canned)
6oz tomato paste
12oz ricotta or cottage cheese
1/2C grated parmesan or asiago cheese
12oz lasagna noodles
16oz grated mozzarella cheese

Method:
- brown beef (drain if necessary), add tomato sauce, paste and season to your liking
-if using a crockpot liner now is the time to put it in your crockpot
-spoon layer of sauce onto the bottom of the crockpot
-add double layer of uncooked lasagna noodles top with cheese
-add some sauce, than cheese and noodles repeat till all ingredients are used
-cover and cook on high 4-5hrs or on low 8-10hrs
