Small crock pot recipes

							Small crock pot recipes

1 1/2 quart (small crock pot) recipes are exactly 1/2 of the ingredients posted on the
website recipes. I have a cookbook that came with the small Rival slow cooker.

Most of the recipes give two options - the low heat (10-12 hours) and the high (5-6 hours)
- The small crock pots only have low heat. I think that will help bajahorselady with her
post.

VEGETABLE & MEAT LASAGNA
posted by bluejjazz52
......for a 4 qt. crockpot

1/2 lb. ground beef, pork or turkey
3/4 cup zucchini or yellow squash, shredded
1/2 cup carrot, shredded
1/2 cup mushrooms, chopped
1 small onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 16 oz. jar spaghetti sauce, your favorite
1/2 tsp. dried oregano
1 tsp. dried basil
1 tsp. fennel seed, ground
1/4 tsp. chili pepper
1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper
2 cups flat noodles (kluski, egg noodles, farfelle, etc.)
1 10 oz. pckg. frozen spinach
1 cup ricotta cheese
1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded

In a large frying pan, brown ground meat over medium heat, breaking it up as it cooks.
Remove from heat & drain any fat. Stir in squash, carrot, mushrooms, onion, garlic,
spaghetti sauce & spices. Mix well.

Divide sauce into 3 equal parts. Place a third of the sauce mixture into the bottom of a 4
quart crockpot. Cover with half of the uncooked noodles, laid as flat as possible. Spread
half of the spinach over the noodles. Drop half of the ricotta by spoonfuls over the
spinach. Sprinkle with 1/3 of the mozzarella & 1/3 of the cheddar cheeses.

Spread another third of the sauce mixture over the cheese. Layer with the rest of the
uncooked noodles laid flat, spinach, ricotta cheese, 1/3 of the mozzarella & 1/3 of the
cheddar cheeses.

Top with the last of the sauce mixture. Cover with the last of the mozzarella & cheddar
cheeses. Cook on low for about 4 - 5 hours.

Makes about 4 - 6 servings. Freezes well.

Sometimes I toss 1/2 to 1 cup chopped brocolli if I don't have enough spinach. This
recipe is fun to play with.
