Tips:

  • Use Fresh Spinach: Fresh spinach adds a vibrant color and flavor to the lasagna. If using frozen spinach, thaw and squeeze out excess water before using.
  • Layer Wisely: Layer the lasagna ingredients evenly, ensuring each layer is adequately covered with sauce and cheese.
  • Cook on Low and Slow: Use the slow cooker on low heat for 6-8 hours or on high heat for 3-4 hours. This slow cooking method allows the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Let it Rest: After cooking, let the lasagna rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving. This helps the lasagna set and makes it easier to cut.
