It’s easy to prep. Easy to cook. After all, your crockpot does all the hard work.
It’s finally getting cold in Ohio and it’s darker earlier.
When dinner time rolls around I need something easy to serve. And sometimes soup is the answer.
But this is no ordinary soup recipe.
It’s comforting… it’s hearty… and it feeds crowd.
This slow cooker lasagna soup has all the essentials of traditional lasagna.
How to make lasagna soup in the crockpot
The hardest part about this recipe is browning the sausage.
Once you’ve done that the rest is dump and go.
The lasagna noodles and cheeses go in after six hours of slow cooking.
The ingredients can be tweaked if you would prefer ground beef or chicken. If you are not a fan of mushrooms, add in spinach or chopped zucchini.
The lasagna noodles will take a half an hour submerged in the crockpot to reach al dente.
Any longer and your noodles will start to absorb the broth. It’s an easy fix. Just add more broth to your liking.
