Slow Cooker Lasagne

Two of my favorite things: my slow cooker and Italian food. Enough said.



Ingredients:

1 lb ground beef
1 26 oz jar spaghetti sauce
1 cup water
1 15 oz container ricotta cheese
1 7 oz pkg mozzerarella cheese shredded
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 egg
2 tbs chopped fresh italian parsley
6 lasagne noodles, uncooked

Brown meat in skillet; drain. Stir in spaghetti sauce and water. Combine ricotta, 1 1/2 cups mozzarella, 2 tbs parmesan, egg and parsley in a bowl. Spoon 1 cup meat mixture into slow cooker, top with layer of lasagne noodles, broken to fit. Top noodles with half of the cheese mixture. Repeat with 2 cups meat sauce, then noodles, remaining cheese mixture, then remaining meat mixture. Cover and cook on low 4-6 hours. Sprinkle top with remaining cheeses and cover again for 10 more minutes.
