First Day Of 2013 - Crock Pot Lasagna Soup. (Gluten Free)

Forget cabbage, black eyed peas and resolution making, we spent the majority of our day trying to keep our two year old from picking the scab on her lip (she re-busted it last night excited from fireworks) and trying to get our 8 month old to poop.

I did manage to throw together an easy lasagna soup in the crockpot. It's a one pot meal = Mom bliss.

Ingredients

28oz can of diced tomatoes (I used some that were garlic/oregano flavor)
6 oz can tomato paste
1 lb ground beef (I used ground turkey)
3 cups beef broth
3-4 cloves of garlic, minced
1 tbsp dried parsley
1 tbsp dried basil
1 small onion, chopped
2 cups uncooked shell pasta (I used gluten free pasta to make the dish gluten free)
1 cup water
Salt and pepper to taste
Shredded cheese for topping (I used mozzarella)

Mix together can of diced tomatoes and tomato paste in the crock pot.

Next add beef, broth, garlic, parsley, basil, onion and salt and pepper.

Cover and cook on LOW for 7-8 hours. When 30 minutes are left in cook time, add the noodles and water, recover and cook for remaining 30 minutes.

Serve with shredded cheese on top.
