Lasagna Spirals

"In a pinch, you could use 3 1/3 cups of prepared pasta sauce instead of the tomato cream sauce. You could also try different mushrooms such as shiitake or oyster for a different taste."

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I love to cook and so I am thrilled that I found recipezaar. I work as an educational assistant in a food school so I am around food all day long. I have four children, three of which have already flown the coop so to speak but I still have my 'baby' at home. (He's 21). I am lucky in that I have my summers off so I spend a lot of time trying new recipes and catching up on my reading. I also play soccer in a ladies league to stay in shape.
