This is a simple and delicious recipe. I have made it twice now with equal success. This will be a "go to" one for me. The instructions were easy to follow and the ingredients inexpensive and easy to obtain. Except for the ricotta, everything else is a pantry staple. The texture is creamy and with the short crockpot cooking time the noodles were tender and not mushy.

So so good. Really good. Easy easy and quick to prep, agreed. And yet I feel so accomplished cooking my first lasagna. I thought they were hard :)
Noodles: We used regular ol' hard lasagna noodles, too. They worked great.
Ricotta: Also, I didn't realize we were almost out of ricotta. So I had to use low-cal cream cheese to substitute for a little more than half of the ricotta.
Deeeeelicious. Hubby loved it. We couldn't wait to get into our leftovers the next day!

This was an excellent recipe. We used our favorite spaghetti sauce from a local restaurant. Although the recipe did not specify, we opted for regular noodles instead of oven ready. Quick and easy!
