Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a skillet over medium heat, crumble and cook the Italian sausage until browned and no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat and set aside.
  2. In your slow cooker, add the browned sausage along with diced tomatoes, chicken broth, minced garlic, chopped onion, and Italian seasoning. Stir until combined.
  3. Cover the slow cooker and set to low heat for about 6 hours.
  4. About 30 minutes before serving, carefully stir in broken lasagna noodles. Ensure they are submerged in broth.
  5. Once the noodles are tender, mix in the ricotta, shredded mozzarella, and grated parmesan cheese until combined and melted.
  6. Ladle into bowls, garnishing with fresh basil and additional parmesan or ricotta if desired.
