Easy Crock Pot Lasagna Recipe

Back to school is starting soon, so finding an easy dinner weeknight meal for the family becomes paramount. This Crock Pot Lasagna will be a favorite in your home.  This recipe uses the no-boil lasagna sheets which are preboiled.  A popular brand that can easily be found at the local grocery store is Barilla no-boil lasagna sheets version.  These days they also offer a Gluten-free version. We tried them recently, and they are delicious too.

Years ago, when my kids were little, I started using the no-boil lasagna, which saved a lot of time.  In the last few years, I was introduced to Crock Pot lasagna, and I was hooked.  Here is a recent easy crockpot lasagna recipe I made for family, and they loved it.

Update February 2020: There is Gluten Free No-Boil Lasagna Noodles now. So, if you want to try this recipe and are gluten intolerant, check out these instead.

Easy Crock Pot Lasagna ingredients:

2 - 32 oz or 3 - 24 oz Your Favorite Tomato Sauce or make your own
2 - 32 oz Ricotta
3 tbsp Parsley (dry or fresh) 2 tbsp for ricotta mix and 1 tbsp for the top layer
8 no-boil lasagna noodles (I used Delverde Ondine Spinach No-Boil Lasagne, 1.1-Pound. This brand says the noodles need to soak in warm water for a few minutes to soften. It worked best to do this to help break them. In the past, I also used Barilla Pasta, Oven-Ready Lasagne, 9 Ounce sheets. They did not need to be soaked.)
2 - 4 cups mozzarella shredded 1/2 - 1 cup per layer
1 box Baby Greens (I used Earthbound Kale Italia Deep Green Blend.)
Nonstick spray
Salt and Pepper (if needed)

Easy Crock Pot Lasagna Instructions:

First, I sprayed the crockpot with nonstick spray to make for easy clean up after.

Add ricotta to a bowl. Add parsley and mix.

The layering process is as follows:

Note: since there are many different sizes crock pots be sure to cover the bottom with each layer. Because of this, the quantity may vary. I used a large crockpot so you probably will have leftover ingredients if you use a smaller crockpot.

1. Tomato sauce to cover
2. Broken lasagna noodle pieces
3. Ricotta mix
4. A handful of veggies to cover
5. 1 cup of shredded mozzarella

Repeat for at least 2 layers.  The amount of the layers will depend on the height of your Crock-Pot. 

And, the last layer,  add noodles, then tomato sauce, then mozzarella shred to cover and Parmesan cheese with 1 tbsp of parsley on top.

Add the lid and cook on low for 4-5 hours and high on 3 hours.

NOTE: Condensation will form at the top of the Lasagna because of the lid. So, if you want it drier on top, tilt the lid for the last 1/2 hour.

Here is the final product.

I made two crockpot lasagna recipes, here is the second one. Doesn't it look delicious? I made it for parties, and everyone enjoyed it. Feel free to visit our other slow cooker recipes for a delicious family weeknight dinner.
