Crock Pot Lasagna

In the continuing effort to make dinner time easier on myself while working, I've been trying to incorporate my crock pot more often. That way everything is set up before I start working and dinner is ready when I take my lunch break at 7 pm.
I found this recipe on Recipezaar (thanks to Alyssa for introducing me to that site!) and it turned out really well! It's definitely an easier was to make lasagna than the traditional way, and tasted great as well.

Crock Pot Lasagna

Ingredients

* 1 lb lean ground beef (I used turkey)
* 1 onion, chopped
* 2 garlic cloves, smashed
* 1 (28 ounce) can tomato sauce
* 1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
* 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
* 1 teaspoon dried oregano
* 12 ounces cottage cheese (we like 2%)
* 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese or asiago cheese
* 12 ounces lasagna noodles, uncooked
* 16 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese

Directions

1. Brown ground beef, onion and garlic in frypan.
2. Add tomato sauce, tomato paste, salt and oregano.
3. Cook long enough to get it warm.
4. Spoon a layer of meat sauce onto the bottom of the slow cooker.
5. Add a double layer of uncooked lasagna noodles (break to fit) and top with cheeses.
6. Repeat with sauce, noodles and cheeses until all are used up.
7. Cover and cook on low for 4 to 5 hours.
