This easy recipe for gluten free slow cooker lasagna soup is perfect for a weeknight meal. It's made with gluten free lasagna noodles, diced tomatoes and ground beef. The meat and sauce cook in the crockpot and then you add the pasta 30 minutes before serving.
We love this recipe for putting together a meal that I don't have to stir and watch while it cooks. I put this in the crockpot and do other things while dinner is being made. I highly suggest topping with the cottage cheese, parmesan and mozzarella. It really adds to the flavor of the soup!
I'm a big fan of my Crock Pot 6 quart Slow Cooker. It's the perfect size for most recipes and easy to clean up when I'm done.

Equipment
Storage
If you have leftover gluten free lasagna soup let it cool and then store in an air tight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. I like to reheat the soup in the microwave for a single bowl or if there is a large amount left I put the leftovers back in the slow cooker on low to reheat.
Top Tip
Be sure to wait until the ground beef mixture is fully cooked to add your noodles. If you add them sooner they will get mushy. Once you add the gluten free lasagna pasta check it after 20 minutes to see if the noodles are cooked and al dente or if they need a bit longer.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I make gluten free lasagna soup?
Good gluten free lasagna noodles is key! I really like the Jovial Brown Rice Lasagna Pasta. I think they taste the most like what I remember regular lasagna noodles tasting like. They hold together really well also.
These noodles are perfect if you can't have corn products too. I love that they are simply brown rice and water.
I cook the ground beef, diced tomatoes, onion, garlic, marinara sauce, beef broth, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper and parsley in the slow cooker on low for 6-7 hours or on high for 2-3 hours. Cook until the meat in done.
Then I turn the crockpot to low and add the broken lasagna noodles. Let the noodles stand in the hot sauce for 30 minutes. Serve the soup with cottage cheese and shredded mozzarella cheese on top.
Do I cook noodles before adding to slow cooker?
No! Don't cook the Jovial Brown Rice Lasagna Pasta before adding it to the slow cooker. The gluten free pasta will cook in the hot sauce in your slow cooker. If you precook the pasta it will get too soft and won't hold together in your soup.
Can I use a slow cooker to make soup?
Yes! Using my slow cooker is one of my favorite ways to make soup. I love the simplicity of adding my ingredients and having a hot dinner ready in a few hours while I do other things.
When possible I look to use the low heat setting and cook my soups slowly so nothing burns on the bottom. If you are going to use the high heat setting be sure to have enough liquid in the pot and to thoroughly stir your ingredients so nothing is stuck to the bottom of your pot.
