Step 1

First brown the ground beef in a large skillet over medium high heat and drain off the excess grease.

Step 2

Then place the ground beef into a 6 quart crock pot.

Step 3

Add in the diced onion and red bell pepper. Pour in the crushed tomatoes and the diced tomatoes.

Step 4

Add in seasonings.

Step 5

Third, pour in the beef broth.

Step 6

Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours.

Step 7

Remove the lid. Break the lasagna noodles into bite size pieces and stir them in. I break them in over the crock pot so all the small pieces will fall directly into the crock pot.

Step 8

Cover and cook on high for 30-45 minutes until the noodles are cooked through.

Step 9

Spoon into bowls. Top with a tablespoon of ricotta cheese, and a handful of mozzarella and the shredded parmesan cheese.
