Crock Pot Lasagna Soup has all the cheesy flavor of Lasagna, without all the fuss and layering!
1. Combine all ingredients EXCEPT pasta and cheeses in a 6-7 quart crock pot.
2. Cover. Cook on Low for 8-9 hours or on High for 4-6.
3. During the last 30 minutes of crocking, add in uncooked pasta.
Optional: When serving, spoon soup into oven-proof bowls, with a dollop of ricotta cheese, and sprinkle with mozzarella. Place under a preheat broiler for 3-5 minutes or until cheese is hot and melted. (I like my cheese a little brown!)
Happy Crocking!
Love,
