SLOW-COOKER TURKEY PESTO LASAGNA
My cheesy, noodle-y lasagna makes any slow-cooker skeptic a believer. It's easy to prep while my kids nap, and dinner's ready when their dad walks in the door at night. We bring more pesto and marinara to the table for our resident sauce lovers. -Blair Lonergan, Rochelle, VA
