  1. A wonderful, classic lasagna. So simple to prepare and tastes excellent. I absolutely adore the addition of the zucchini in this. I didn't use the yellow squash, though - the market didn't have any decent enough. Next time I try this, I'll use homemade sauce, but even with jarred, it tasted wonderful! Took your advice and froze the leftovers in single servings for much anticipated lunches during the week! Thanks.
     
  2. I really liked this, but changed a lot of it to use what I had on hand. I used summer squash, sliced potatoes instead of pasta, beef scraps and a can of pinto beans instead of sausage, and my Italian seasoning rather than the herbs. Really good, the flavors blended well.
