I’m a money-saving mom – my slow cooker lasagna comes out perfect every time and only takes ten minutes of prep
A MONEY-SAVING mom has come up with a novel way of preparing delicious lasagne.
This slow cooker recipe took only ten minutes to prepare and with minimal effort.
The reward was a tasty and budget-friendly family supper.

In one of her posts, slow cooker lasagne was the star of the show.
“[It] comes out perfect every time and it takes about ten minutes to get ready,” she said.
“I’m [using] the leftovers from the huge Bolognese I made yesterday.”
She began to create her dish.
“Layer it up with a lasagne sheet, and add some bolognese, it’s a bit like doing a jigsaw and you just sort of have to break it up to fit the slow cooker.
“Add white sauce, another layer of paster, another layer of Bolognese, stir then more white sauce, sprinkle with cheese.”
Once prepared, she gave instructions on timings.
“I’m gonna cook that on high for about three hours, then I’ll turn it down for the next three to four hours,” she said. “It will cook beautifully.”
When it was ready to serve, she was delighted with it.
“Cooked in the slow cooker. Absolutely scrumptious.
“Comes out perfect with minimal effort,” was her verdict.

This final comment was blown away: “I would never have thought that dry pasta could cook without liquid. This just blew my mind so thank you for upping the slow cooker game for me,” she said.
