Description

Lazy Day Vegetable Lasagna is an easy, slow-cooked version of lasagna using frozen ravioli, fresh vegetables, and creamy Alfredo sauce, topped with toasted panko for a satisfying crunch.


Ingredients

15 oz jar of Alfredo sauce

Two (25 oz) packs of frozen ravioli

1 cup carrots, shredded

2 cups fresh spinach, chopped

8 oz pack of mozzarella cheese, shredded

1 cup panko breadcrumbs

2 tablespoons butter, melted


Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, mix panko breadcrumbs with melted butter to make the toasted panko. Set aside.
  2. Start by pouring a small amount of Alfredo sauce at the bottom of your slow cooker. Layer frozen ravioli on top of the sauce, followed by spinach, carrots, and shredded mozzarella cheese.
  3. Continue layering until all ingredients are used up, finishing with a final layer of ravioli, Alfredo sauce, and mozzarella cheese.
  4. Cover the slow cooker and set to **high** for 3 hours or **low** for 6 hours. Check when cheese is melted and ravioli is tender.
  5. In the final 15 minutes, sprinkle toasted panko breadcrumbs over the top to add a golden, crispy topping.
  6. Serve hot and enjoy the creamy, cheesy lasagna.

Notes

You can add extra vegetables such as zucchini, bell peppers, or mushrooms to personalize this dish.

For a gluten-free option, swap out the ravioli for gluten-free ravioli.

If you don’t have a slow cooker, you can bake the lasagna in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 30-35 minutes until bubbly and golden on top.

If the lasagna is too watery, drain excess water from the ravioli before layering and cook uncovered during the last 30 minutes.
