This is a fabulous crock pot recipe from reader Christine:
1 diced onion
couple of cloves minced garlic
oregano, basil
2 large cans crushed tomatoes
1 lb ground something (we like turkey)
3-4 cups shredded mozzarella
2 15oz cottage cheese
1 box lasagna noodles (I always get whole wheat)
Brown 1 lb of something with onions, garlic, oregano, basil and throw in some salt and pepper, of course. Toss in the crushed tomatoes. You layer everything in the crock pot: broken up dry noodles, meat mixture, cottage cheese, mozzarella. I do about three layers, so just divide up everything you have by three and get to layering. 3-5 hours on low. I always then turn it off and let it sit a good 15 minutes, as sometimes it may not have thickened up (because I always forget to get it going in time and am barely making the three-hour mark). Granted, nobody cares. It's yum.

This looks great and might inspire me to buy a larger crock pot. I only have a mini one right now - I won it at a party. Does the turkey taste like beef? Or does it taste totally different?
YUM. I will try this one tonight.
Christy-
In a sauce like in this recipe you should barely be able to tell the difference between turkey & beef. Lean white meat turkey comes out slightly less moist then just straight turkey (combo of dark & white meats), but both are definitely a better choice than beef! :)
Oh man, I'm going to have to wait until Wednesday to make this, but I'm ALL about the slow cooker recipes. Thanks for sharing!
I agree with Heather, in sauce they taste the same.
I made this 2 nights ago.. it was deeeee-licious!!
I toasted a loaf of frozen garlic bread and opened a baggie of ready to eat salad.
Fastest "fancy" dinner ever!
