It's a keeper!

[Guest guest]

There's a recipe in the files for Slow Cooker TVP Lasagna. (Which I cant

find now) I made it last night with a few changes since I didn't have TVP.

This recipe is definitely a keeper. I have enough left over to freeze for

another night. I have a large oval crockpot so I made more then the original

recipe called for.

Here is the recipe with the changes I made.

 

Slow Cooker Lasagna

 

12 oz uncooked lasagna noodles, broken in half or thirds

1 roll of soy breakfast sausage (scrambled with garlic)

1 (28 ounce) jar pasta sauce

2/3 cup water

Fresh mushroom slices

1 (15 ounce) container cottage cheese **

2 cup mozzarella, shredded

 

Fry the sausage and fresh garlic in some oil. Add the mushrooms and

spaghetti sauce.

Place 1/3 of the noodles in bottom of a greased slow cooker.

Cover with 1/3 the sauce, 1/3 the water, 1/2 the cottage cheese, 1/3 the

mozzarella. Now repeat the layers. On the final layer you will have noodles,

sauce and mozzarella cheese only. (No cottage cheese)

Cover and cook on high for 2 hours and then turn the temperature to low

for another few hours. Sometimes pasta sauces vary so if the sauce isn't

thick then you can cut the water down but I find these directions work very

well.

 

** you can also use ricotta cheese or tofu**

 

Thank you to whoever posted the original recipe. With the lasagna and a nice

salad we had a great dinner and I had an easy day. :-)
