Add frozen ravioli. Pour additional pasta sauce, tomato sauce, water, and red pepper over ravioli (I usually pour the pasta sauce on first and then shake together the tomato sauce, water, and red pepper in the empty pasta sauce jar to mix them). Sprinkle Italian seasonings over sauces. Sprinkle cheese on top. Don't stir Turn crock pot on low and cook for 4-5 hours (until ravioli are tender).

I make this "meatless" style also by leaving out the meat and using spinach, mushrooms, zucchini, eggplant, or whatever veggies I have instead of the ground beef. Crockpot Lasagna Ingredients: 1 lb. lean ground beef 1 onion, chopped 2 tsp. minced garlic 1 (29 ounce) can tomato sauce (I use 2 lg.cans chunky pasta sauce) 1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste (I don't use the paste) 1 1/2 tsp. salt 1 tsp. dried oregano 1 (12 oz) package lasagna noodles, uncooked 12 oz. cottage cheese 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese 16 oz. shredded mozzarella cheese Cooking spray Directions: In a large skillet over medium heat cook the ground beef, onion, and garlic until brown. Add the tomato sauce, tomato paste, salt, and oregano and stir until well mixed. In a large bowl mix the cottage cheese, grated parmesan cheese, and shredded mozzarella cheese. Spray the crockpot with cooking spray. Spoon a layer of the meat mixture onto the bottom of the crockpot. Add a double layer of the uncooked lasagna noodles. Break them to fit noodles into crockpot. Top noodles with a portion of the cheese mixture. Repeat the layering of meat sauce, noodles, and cheese until all the ingredients are used. End with the cheese mixture or save some of the cheese for the top. Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours.
