Lots of reviews complain about the amount of salt and/or sugar. I had to add more salt and more garlic and it still was very bland. I did use Italian turkey sausage and ground turkey, however, I've made lasagna in the past using turkey and jar sauce (spiced up) and not had a flavor problem. I thought using this recipe would make my lasagna more flavorful, and it just didn't happen. I'll stick with using an already flavorful jar sauce and adding spices to it to get the proper balance. Definitely not worth the time.

Very good. I made the following changes: only added 1 tbsp tomato paste-- used merlot-- added 8 or so stems of thyme-- used 20 roma tomatoes-- cooked for 4 hours-- added 1 tsp seasoned salt-- after cutting up the tomatoes, I pureed them using a hand blender with the carrots, onions & bellpeppers-- after cooking and removing bay leaves (3), thyme stems and celery, I then used the hand blender again to make the sauce completely smooth-- My sauce was lighter in color than most of the pics here. Looks more like vodka sauce. Next time I may skip the carrots and bellpeppers.

Great recipe! I didn't have onion powder so I put some onion flakes in water and then drained them. Still tasted great.
