📝 Ingredients List:

1 lb ground beef
½ onion, finely diced
1 red bell pepper, finely diced
1 can (14.5 oz) petite diced tomatoes
1 can (28 oz) crushed tomatoes
1 tsp minced garlic
1 tbsp Italian seasoning
4 cups beef broth
12 oz lasagna noodles
½ cup ricotta cheese
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese

👩‍🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions:

Brown the Beef:
In a large skillet, brown the ground beef over medium-high heat until fully cooked. Drain excess fat.
Transfer to Crockpot:
Add the browned beef to a 6-quart crockpot.
Add Veggies & Tomatoes:
Stir in the diced onion, bell pepper, crushed tomatoes, and diced tomatoes.
Season It Up:
Add the minced garlic and Italian seasoning, mixing well.
Pour in Broth:
Carefully pour in the beef broth and give it all a gentle stir.
Slow Cook:
Cover and cook on low for 6–8 hours or high for 3–4 hours, allowing all the flavors to meld beautifully.
Add Noodles:
Break lasagna noodles into smaller pieces and add them to the crockpot. Cover and cook on high for an additional 30–45 minutes, or until noodles are tender.
Serve & Cheese It Up:
Ladle soup into bowls and top with a spoonful of ricotta 🧀, shredded mozzarella, and Parmesan. Garnish with parsley if desired. 🌿

💡 Pro Tips Section:

Storage:
Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Keep noodles separate if possible to prevent sogginess.
Freezer Friendly:
Freeze without noodles for up to 3 months. Reheat with fresh noodles when ready to serve.
Customizable:
Try ground sausage, turkey, or mushrooms for a twist! Gluten-free or veggie pasta works great too.
Serving Idea:
Serve with crusty garlic bread or a fresh green salad for a complete meal.
