- In a large bowl, mix together the three cheeses
- Spoon a layer of the meat mixture onto the bottom of the slow cooker

- Top noodles with a portion of the cheese mixture
- Repeat layers of sauce, noodles, and cheese until all ingredients are used

*I found recipe here: I did not trust there to be enough liquid and added a cup or so of water... which turned our lasagna into pudding. So, if you try this, don't add water!
