Cloudy Day

I've been obsessed with The Pioneer Woman. Namely her blog and recipes.

Especially her recipes.

Like, Sour Cream Noodle Bake for example. Life changing. Seriously.

I was pokin' around on her blog today and found an entry she wrote about the best ways to write a blog. Or however she titled it. Needless to say, it inspired me. Imitation is the greatest form of flattery, no? I'll try and make it my own.

I posted on Facebook the other day about how I made lasagna in the crockpot. I tried putting the recipe up on here, but the HTML wasn't working properly.

Let's try it again. If it's poopy then I'll scream. Loud.

Italian Sausage Lasagna

1 lb. Italian sausage

1/2 an onion, chopped

2 garlic cloves, chopped

2 cans (15 oz.) tomato sauce

2 teaspoons Italian seasoning

1 container (14 oz.) Ricotta cheese

1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

uncooked lasagna noodles

I think that's all the ingredients. Now for the fun assembly part.

Cook sausage, onion, and garlic until sausage is no longer pink. Add the tomato sauce and seasoning. Let simmer.

In a bowl combine all the cheeses.

Spray crockpot with cooking spray. Layer in the sausage mixture, 4 noodles, and cheese until full. Cook on low heat setting for 6-8 hours. 10 minutes before serving top with more mozzarella cheese.

I would recommend pouring half a jar of spaghetti sauce over the top of it before serving. And make sure you spray the crockpot like crazy. CRAZY I tell ya. Or you'll end up eating just the middle because the edges will be so burnt you'll want to vomit. Maybe not, but it does stink.

For the Sour Cream Noodle Bake recipe visit thepioneerwoman.com and search for it. It's life-changing. And you should definitely try that recipe before trying the lasagna one. Or try the lasagna one first and then the noodle one, but be prepared to never want to eat anything else in your life. It really is that good.
