Slow Cooker Lasagna Soup
I'm starting to find myself drawn to more and more slow cooker recipes. In the summer I love to use the slow cooker because it allows me to spend more time doing activities. In the fall/winter I love the slow cooker because it has such potential to make comfort food without too much effort.
For this soup you will need a 6-quart slow cooker or larger. Mine is a 6-quart and it was filled to the brim with ingredients. The good news about that is, this recipe is perfect for serving a large crowd or if you need to have plenty of leftovers. This provided Dave and me with lunch and dinner throughout the entire school/work week.

Ingredients:
-1 yellow onion, diced

-4 cloves garlic, minced
-1 15 ounce can tomato sauce
-1 28 ounce can crushed tomatoes
-6 cups vegetable broth

For the ricotta cheese topping
-1 8 ounce container ricotta cheese

Add the onion, brown mushrooms, zucchini, garlic, tomato sauce, crushed tomatoes, vegetable broth, bay leaves, oregano, basil, red pepper flakes, kosher salt and black pepper to the liner of a 6 quart slow cooker,. Set the slow cooker on low and cook for 7 hours.
Once the seven hours is up, cook the lasagna noodles according to the package directions, drain, rinse and add to the soup. I cut mine into smaller pieces to make them easier to eat. At this time you should also stir in the spinach.
