I feel when someone uses a slo-cooker or crock pot, they should tell me why it’s better or easier than just making a dish the regular way. DID THAT happen here??? How does an oven lasagna take FORRREVERRRR? You assemble it, keep it in the fridge till you’re hungry, and an hour later you have it. I don’t understand.
@kingleomA lasagna takes less than an hour in the oven. And no mushy noodles. So please stop.
Slow cooker lasagna has some advantages- no hot oven to heat up the house, no noodles to boil , cooks itself with no checking dish , keeps warm till ready to eat?
@gibsonalohano hot oven to heat up the house – it’s a lasagna, not a 3 hour roast. No boiling noodles – look for a recipe that doesn’t require that. Cooks itself with no checking dish – that’s what a timer does, a lasagna once assembled takes LESS THAN AN HOUR in the oven. Keeps warm till ready to eat – that just equals mushy garbage you may have wasted money on. Just make a real lasagna and stuff some of it in a microwave if it’s too cool for your slo-cooker standards. Lol Sheesh
@xomichaelanthonygarciaxoit’s a frikkin lasagna, people. You don’t just throw stuff into a crock pot and call it what you want. It’s just a shady lady with a million bucks pretending she’s your friend. Get over the down home pretend bulloney
@xomichaelanthonygarciaxoI have slo cooked all kinds of noodles. The texture and taste is clearly different than if you just cook a regular dish. SO PLEASE Blanche, werrrt in gawwwd’s green earth are you talking about???
I like to use cottage cheese too!
Lasagna for 4hrs😬
To see the gentleman working so hard, I’m a retired professional drummer. Believe me, it’s absolutely destroyed my body. A relentless touring schedule since 1988, I can barely walk. I know that sounds crazy, but my knees, my back, my shoulders, wrists, my ears. I watch these gentlemen working so hard. Much respect. I’m 60, and now use a cane and fall often. My legs just give out. That food looks delicious
