In a bowl, combine 2 cups of the shredded Mozzarella cheese, the ricotta cheese, and Parmesan cheese.
Spoon 1/4 of the sausage mixture into 3 1/2 to 5-quart crockpot; top with 4 lasagna noodles broken into pieces to fit. Top with half the cheese mixture and 1/4 of the sausage mixture.

"Was a good recipe but needs changing. I noticed that the cheese was sparse and didn't hold up after hours of cooking. There also wasn't enough meat! I suggest doubling the meat and the cheese. I also boiled the noodles for a few minutes to soften, it was easier to work with them. Use jar sauce instead of canned, tastes better. It was better the second time after the changes. Worth trying and easy."
