Directions

For the Lasagna

In a large 12-inch skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat and cook onions until translucent.

2.

Brown meat, breaking it up as it cooks, until there are no pink spots.

3.

Add garlic, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, and spices. Stir and let flavors combine for 5 minutes, as the mixture boils.

4.

Spoon 1/4 of the meat mixture onto the bottom of the insert of a slow cooker.

According to the recipe, it seems that no water is needed. That the lasagna will cook by being in the crockpot and being surrounded by tomato sauce and diced tomatoes.

Prepare ahead of time? Hello.

Can this be prepared ahead of time and kept in the refrigerator overnight, and then put into the crock pot 4 hours before meal-time?

Thank you so much.
