- In a bowl mix together all the first part of the ingredients except for the lasagna sheets.
- Mix well.
- Cover the bottom of the slowcooker with the mince mixture, then place the lasagna sheets over the top (without overlapping – you might have to break them a bit to fit).
- Next spoon enough cheese sauce over the noodles to cover (not too thick), and repeat until all the mixtures are used up.
- Sprinkle some extra cheese on top.
- Cook on low for 6 hours or high for 4 hours.
- Use a large serving spoon to ‘scoop’ out the lasagna to serve.
