Lasagna Bowl

Homemade Sauce with Tinkyada lasagna noodles
The noodles can.usually be found in the gluten free section of your Wal-Mart or local grocery store. They are a $1 more than your average cheap pasta usually. They are thicker and healthier since the only ingredients are brown rice! More protein! The sauce I made in the crockpot starting with enough olive oil to cover the bottom of the crock. Then added minced fresh from the vine garlic and minced onion. I used 3 little purple onions and 3whole things of garlic. Then after about an.hour on high I added chopped tomatoes. I go for the ugly tomatoes at the Farmers Market and just cut the imperfections out. They taste better anyway. Then about 30minutes before dinner I add the fresh from the vine basil a whole bunchle and chop that up and throw it in there. Then sprinkle some sea salt in there and call.it good until ready to serve! Just take a knife and slice up the noodles when there done before draining.  We all had a double serving including the 10month old!
