  1. Made this last night - my bf was dubious about spinach so I thought I would try an simple recipe first in case he didn't like it. This was simple and quick to make. I like the fact using ready made pasta sauce means you can adapt it to your taste - I used onion and garlic sauce. The only deviation I made is not using any cheddar, but thats only because my lasagne dish is not very big and was worried too much cheese would make it overflow! It came out tasting lovely, full flavour and without the heavy greasy taste you often get with meat lasagne. Thanks, my fella and I loved it and will be doing this one again.
     
  2. Yummy! Made this before I got married...now not sure my husband would go for this, but I'll probably give it a try! Used jar marinara sauce of some sort and subbed cottage cheese in place of ricotta. This was a great lasagne. Made a lot and I had to put some in the freezer, but came out well for an easy meal! Might be good with some chicken as well. Thanks for sharing!
     
  3. This was a really tasty lasagne. I've always used the instant lasagne sheets that don't need to be pre-cooked, so was a bit surprised when the top layer came out of the oven rather crunchy. I'm giving five stars because it was my mistake really....and the kids enjoyed the crunchy bits!! Easy meal to make, though I did make my own sauce....basically canned tomatoes, onions, garlic, tomato paste and wine. Thanks Honni for a lovely meal!
