Skinny Slow Cooker Spinach Lasagna Recipes

Steps:

• In a large bowl, stir together the ricotta, spinach, Parmesan, basil, garlic, oregano, onion powder, ¼ teaspoon salt and a generous amount of black pepper.
• Lightly grease the bottom and sides of a 6- to 7-quart slow cooker with olive oil. Ladle about 1 cup of the marinara sauce in the bottom of the slow cooker, and spread it evenly.
• Make two layers: Lay 3 lasagna noodles on top of the sauce, breaking the noodles to make a roughly even layer. (This doesn't need to be perfect; it's fine if the noodles overlap slightly, and if there are small spots the noodles don't cover.) Ladle about ¾ cup of sauce on top of the noodles and spread evenly. Evenly dollop about half of the ricotta mixture over the sauce, and use the back of a fork to press it into a roughly even layer. Sprinkle about a third of the shredded mozzarella over the ricotta. Repeat to make one more layer, using three noodles, the ¾ cup sauce, the remaining half of the ricotta mixture, then about half of the remaining mozzarella.
• To finish, lay down the remaining 3 lasagna noodles and spread with the remaining sauce. (Reserve the remaining mozzarella.) Cover and cook on low until the internal temperature in the center is at least 140 degrees and the noodles are tender, 3 hours 30 minutes to 4 hours.
• Turn off the slow cooker and sprinkle the top of the lasagna with the remaining mozzarella. Remove the crock from the base that contains the heating element and let the lasagna rest with the lid on for 20 to 30 minutes, otherwise it will fall apart when you try to slice it. Sprinkle the top with more torn basil, to your taste. Cut the lasagna with a knife and scoop out servings with a spatula to serve.

Steps:

• Spray 5- to 6-quart slow cooker with cooking spray. Spread 3/4 cup of the tomato pasta sauce in bottom of slow cooker.
• In large bowl, mix bell peppers, onion and spinach; stir in remaining tomato pasta sauce and the tomato sauce.
• Layer 3 lasagna noodles, broken into pieces to fit, over sauce in slow cooker. Top with one-third of the Alfredo sauce (about 1/2 cup), spreading to cover noodles completely. Top with 5 of the cheese slices, overlapping if necessary. Top with one-third of the vegetable mixture (about 2 cups), spreading evenly. Repeat layers twice. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over top.
• Cover; cook on Low heat setting 5 to 6 hours.

• In 6-quart slow cooker, spoon one-fourth of the turkey mixture; top with 5 noodles, broken into pieces to fit. Spread with half of the cheese mixture and one-fourth of the turkey mixture. Top with 5 noodles, the remaining cheese mixture and one-fourth of the turkey mixture. Top with the remaining 5 noodles and the remaining turkey mixture.
