Slow Cooker Spinach Lasagna

published by Jo Oliver on May 1, 2009

This is one of those no fuss recipes. It is great for long summer days because you don’t have to heat up the oven. Just layer ingredients in the slow cooker and let it do all the work for you. The spinach lasagna recipe will make (8) 500 calorie servings.

    I love spinach (there’s plenty in the vege garden), love lasagne and love my slow-cooker pot, especially over the winter months. Next pay day Jo, I’m going to invite some friends over for Italian cuisine, so this recipe will be part of the spread..thanks.

    What a great idea! I love how slow cookers cook beans but I never thought of using it for Lazagna. Thanks Jo.
