Chicken & Artichoke Lasagna image

My family loves lasagna and I love the slow cooker. I wanted to try something a little different from the classic lasagna we usually make. This recipe not only tastes incredible, it's hearty and convenient, too. -Kelly Silvers, Edmond, Oklahoma

The lasagna was a disaster! The cheese didn't melt and the chicken was dry. I would not recommend this recipe.
