Do you love meals that come together effortlessly? Check out this one-bowl wonder!
With a new found love for my crockpot, I have had fun trying out quick and easy slow cooker meals that the whole family will love. It doesn’t get much easier and is a new favorite of the family. Adapting it to be vegetarian friendly was a cinch, using MorningStar Farms Grillers Recipe Crumbles.
Just a quick note about the cooking times. I originally though that this should cook for 6 hours on LOW, but I checked mine after 4ish hours and it was ready to rock (I swear my crock runs hot).
So I would give this one a test run on the weekend when you are going to be home, just to play around with the cooking times. I hope you love it!
Crockpot Ravioli Lasagna
- Cook ground round (or veg crumble), onion, and garlic in a large skillet over a medium/high heat, until beef crumbles and is no longer pink. Drain if needed and set aside.
- Spoon 3/4 cup pasta sauce into bottom of a lightly greased crockpot. Layer half of the ravioli.
- Repeat layers, starting with 3/4 cup of sauce, ravioli, meat and end with the remaining 1 cup of cheese.
- Cover and cook on LOW for 4-6 hours until pasta is tender. Like I said above, the original recipe said 6 hours, but mine was ready to go after 4.5 hours. So test your crock out with this one!

Late to this party, but my crockpot absolutely runs HOT! I have learned to about halve the time, even on low. Sometimes I prep the pot, leave it in the fridge, and tell my son to plop it in on high when he gets home at 3:15. It’s dinner by 5:45!

In regard to the hot crock pot. I have a new one and it runs hot, as well. In asking around, I was told that the new ones run hotter for food safety reasons. I guess it makes sense but, not convenient for slow cooking if it’s not that slow!

You said the original recipe was 6 hours…Could you possibly link to the original recipe? Thanks!

I made this yummy dish today for our Christmas dinner – wanted something quick and easy for our family. This was perfect for the four of us. I only added some additional oregano, rosemary, basil to the sauce and would be great with a little kick to it next time. I cooked it on low for a little over 3 hours which was all that was needed- anymore would have been too much. My crock pot doesn’t run hot so be careful and not overcook this. Thanks for the recipe – it’s a keeper!

Yum! I actually browned some Italian sausage with ground beef so it was about 50/50 beef and sausage, so good! Mine only needed about 3 hours on low, I just set it on “warm” until we were ready to eat. The only thing I will do differently next time is add some sauce to the top layer of beef and then add the cheese. I found that the raviolis on top didn’t really have any sauce on them and when I tried to dig down deeper into the dish to get some sauce I was breaking up some of the raviolis. They were good even without sauce though. This is definitely a keeper!

Excuse me but I’m fairly new to cooking, infact my boyfriend does all the cooking so I’m curious as to was pasta sause is? Like Alfredo or spaghetti sauce or is it it’s own sause?

Hi could I use lasagne pasta sheets instead for this or would they dry out? Thanks
