Crockpot Lasagna has all of the rich zesty flavors, creamy cheese, and tender, juicy ground beef found in a traditional lasagna recipe! The slow cooker is an easy way to prepare this favorite and let it cook all day while you’re busy.
An Easy Crockpot Meal
We love any and all Crockpot recipes, but this one has a special place in our kitchen!
This recipe is easy to put together and no pre-cooking of the noodles is required. It’s great to make ahead (even the day before) and cook while you’re out or at work. It’s the perfect entrée to add to a potluck or dinner party since all you need to do is plug the Crockpot in to keep it warm. It’s versatile, too, and can easily be changed up with other favorite lasagna ingredients.
Lasagna Ingredients
3 Cheese Filling – Traditional lasagna uses ricotta cheese, but cottage cheese works, too. Parmesan adds flavor while mozzarella makes it gooey and cheesy. Sauce – This easy ground beef version uses a marinara sauce that’s already seasoned, but we add some of our own homemade Italian seasoning. If you have the time, make your own easy marinara sauce, too! Leftover meat sauce can be used, too. Optional Add-Ins –
Add some fresh or frozen spinach to the cheese mixture. Layer in cooked veggies like peppers or mushrooms. Swap half of the ground beef for Italian sausage.

How to Store Leftovers
Lasagna keeps very well in the refrigerator for about 4 days. Make sure it is covered tightly. Sprinkle a little extra mozzarella and Parmesan cheese on top and reheat in the microwave.
