1 jar (26 oz)pasta sauce

2 Tbsp. warm water

Get Cookin'

Use a large crockpot (like a 6 quart).

Wash veggies. Slice squash and eggplant in long slices, about 1/2 inch thick. These are the noodles! Don't peel the skin off the squash or eggplant.

In the bottom of the crockpot, pour 1/4 cup of pasta sauce. Layer a few pieces of squash and eggplant, smear ricotta cheese and add a handful of baby spinach and mushrooms. Put a few slices of mozzarella cheese on top. Pour in more pasta sauce and continue the pattern until the crockpot is full.

Top with pasta sauce and the shredded cheese. Add 2 tablespoons of warm water, pour into the pasta jar, shake, and pour the contents on top of the lasagna.

Cook on low for 5-8 hours.
