Slow Cooker Lasagna Soup
Make this amazing Slow Cooker Lasagna Soup that is easy to make gluten-free too!
A first for us but a soup that I have been looking forward to trying for a while now is Slow Cooker Lasagna Soup. I thought I would try to adapt my Mom’s Easy Lasagna recipe into a soup. Guess what? It worked!
This tasted like a warm delicious slice of lasagna heaven.
Even better is that I had to do very little work to make this tasty dish.
Did I mention I have a mobile baby now?
Yes, very mobile.
What does this mean?
I can kiss the dreams of cooking dinner in peace goodbye! We have a baby gate on the side of our kitchen that leads in from our playroom to keep my daughter from crawling into the kitchen.
As soon as I start dinner it never fails that she entertains herself perfectly fine then I start dinner.
Then she stands up on the side of the gate looking all pitiful like I locked her in jail. Well, I can’t live with myself looking into those sparkly blue eyes so she usually wins!
That means, I need quick dinners, slow cooker meals, or daddy to the rescue!
Typically it’s daddy to the rescue but as we get closer to the holidays my husband’s work day gets later and later, which means he is normally coming in ready for dinner!
How do you make Slow Cooker Lasagna Soup?
So, the slow cooker wins! This soup did not disappoint, it was perfect for a very cold day. It would be delicious paired with garlic bread or french bread.
How do you make Gluten Free Slow Cooker Lasagna Soup?
Simply swap the pasta for a gluten free lasagna and you are all set! There are several to choose from and many are carried at Walmart.
I opted to try it with gluten free flavored bagel chips. They were perfect! So, you could also use bagel chips too.
Tips for Making Slow Cooker Lasagna Soup
One thing to remember when making this is soup is always put the noodles in within 30 minutes of finishing up the cook time and do not set the slow cooker to warm.
Remove the soup from the cooker or your noodles will continue to swell up in the slow cooker.
Are you ready for this yummy dinner?
Enjoy!
