When serving Slow Cooker White Lasagna, you have a variety of options to complement this creamy and indulgent dish. A light and crisp green salad dressed with a tangy vinaigrette balances the richness of the lasagna, while a side of steamed or roasted vegetables like broccoli or asparagus adds a nutritious component. For a complete Italian dining experience, you might also serve garlic bread or a selection of olives and Italian cured meats to start. A nice glass of white wine, such as Pinot Grigio, pairs wonderfully with the creamy alfredo sauce.

Instructions

Step 1

1. In a medium bowl, mix together the ricotta cheese, 1 cup of mozzarella cheese, 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese, the egg, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Set this cheese mixture aside.

Step 2

2. In another bowl, combine the alfredo sauce and chicken broth to create a thinner, more spreadable sauce.

Step 3

3. Spoon a layer of the alfredo sauce mixture into the bottom of the slow cooker.

Step 4

4. Place three uncooked lasagna noodles on top of the sauce, breaking them as necessary to fit into the slow cooker.

Step 5

5. Spread half of the cheese mixture over the noodles and add half of the shredded chicken on top of that.

Step 6

Step 7

6. Repeat the layers, starting with the alfredo sauce mixture, then noodles, the remaining cheese mixture, and the remaining chicken. Finish with a layer of noodles and the remaining alfredo sauce mixture.

Step 8

7. Top with the remaining 1 cup of mozzarella cheese and 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese.

Step 9

8. Cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours until the noodles are tender.

Step 10

9. Once cooked, let the lasagna rest in the slow cooker for about 20 minutes before serving; this allows it to set and makes it easier to cut.
