 Slow Cooker Lasagna Soup

Slow Cooker Lasagna Soup is the a quick mix of easy, winter, slow cooker, pasta and cheese perfection. We’re a huge fan of slow cooker soups because they’re warm, filling and easy!

Plus with holidays and cold weather and school in full swing, time is in short supply.

You can certainly cook the “gravy” or meat sauce on low for 8 hours if you’d prefer and add the noodles in cooked or in the last two hours of cooking.

I’ve set this to the same timing as my Slow Cooker Mac and Cheese because I prefer to have everything cook together but if you have different time requirements you can certainly make adjustments.

The BEST Slow Cooker Beef Lasagna Soup ever!

Some important notes about cooking this Slow Cooker Lasagna Soup:

  • This recipe calls for crushed tomatoes. Buy the best quality crushed tomatoes you can, I recommend these.
  • For tomato paste, if you don’t use it often buy a tube. Less waste! OR freeze leftover tomato paste for another recipe.
  • For the Parmesan cheese use shaved or shredded. Grated cheese won’t melt well.
  • I use all beef in this lasagna soup, but the sausage flavor in most restaurant lasagnas is one I love duplicating. To do that easily here without using sausage, I add in some fennel seeds with goes a long way in making it taste like a Slow Cooker Beef and Sausage Lasagna.
  • Check the doneness at the lower end of the times given, if not quite done cook for the additional hour.

  1. Very good. I added some frozen spinach. And only used the cheese as an add on after dishing up. (We are watching our calories). Will definitely make again!

    1. I’m in the process of testing my recipes using a instant pot so stay tuned! If you need it sooner than I can provide, you might be able to find a recipe online with similiar ingredients and use that as a guideline to follow for the IP.
