Add in the marinara sauce, diced tomatoes, broth and seasonings. Stir and cook on medium for one hour.
Then add in the heavy cream and broken lasagna sheets. Cook for an additional half an hour on high or until the lasagna noodles are ready. Serve in a bowl and top with your favourite cheese.
For cooking in a crock pot, Ashleigh suggests: “If you want to use a crockpot, do 3-4 hours on high (cook the meat before placing in crockpot) and then add the lasagna noodles and heavy cream and cover on high for another 30 minutes.”
