Ingredients
375 grams Italian sausage (mild or spicy, ¾ lb)
1 small onion finely diced
2½ cups marinara sauce
1 teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
9 lasagna noodles (not oven ready)
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
3 tablespoons shredded Parmesan cheese
Instructions
In a medium skillet over medium high heat, cook Italian sausage and onion until completely browned.
Stir in pasta sauce, oregano, salt and pepper.
Lightly grease a 2.5-4 quart slow cooker (ideally not the deep round kind, but an oval casserole one with more surface area).
Spread a little bit of sauce on the bottom of the slow cooker to prevent sticking.
Place 3 lasagna noodles in the bottom of the slow cooker, breaking to fit (save any broken pieces to fill in gaps later). Spread with ⅓ sauce, and top with ⅓ mozzarella and ⅓ Parmesan.
Repeat layers two more times (if you have extra sauce and noodles, you can add a fourth layer if you wish!)
Put the lid on and cook on low for 2.5-3 hours, until noodles are softened.
Turn the slow cooker off and allow to sit for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
