Good recipe for those "On the Go Days"


Crockpot Lasagna

1 ½ lb ground chuck
(or Italian sausage)
6 oz can tomato paste
29 oz can tomato sauce
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp salt
1 cup water 1 tsp minced garlic
1 small onion, chopped 16 oz cottage cheese
32 oz mozzarella, grated
1 box lasagna noodles (the flat ones work best)
Brown meat and drain. Add onions, garlic, tomato paste & sauce, spices and water then mix well. In separate bowl mix cottage cheese and mozzarella cheese.

Layer in the crockpot:
1) ¼ of meat sauce
2) Noodles, break up some to fit around the edges of crockpot
3)
1/3 cheese mixture
Do this 3 times. Make sure top layer is meat sauce. Cook on low setting for 4-4 ½ hrs.
It makes a full pot of a regular sized crockpot so if you need to freeze ½ it freezes well.

Thanks Megan and Rachel!!!
