This is a pretty basic lasagna and really good. It also freezes very well. My husbands loves it. I have a hard time finding sausage flavored sauce, so I get beef flavored and I usually end up using a little more than a 28oz jar.

Good recipe! This was my first time ever making a Lasagna. I've always heard that lasagnas are a lot of work and a lot of ingredients. I agree!!! However the finished product was FAB-U-LOUS! The only alteration I did was use half ground beef and half ground pork. I really wanted to use ground italian sausage but my store was sold out and i didn't feel like driving all over Chicago. Great, great recipe, full of flavor!

My family loves this recipe. For the meat ingredient, I used 1 pound of dark ground turkey mixed with 2 sweet Italian sausage links. (about 3/4#) I cooked my noodles for about 5-6 minutes and I used only one jar of spaghetti sauce. I know others used more sauce but maybe because I cooked my noodles, it didn't require more sauce. Love this recipe!

Seems like a good recipe but missing A LOT of important data like not using all of the ingredients because you will need them in several places (garlic, oragano, CHEESE). The cheese was a big problem. it just says mix the chesse so naturally I mixed all the cheese which left me no cheese to cover. Honestly Im a little mad because it this is my first time cooking and its a disaster.

Yummy. I also tweaked the recipe a bit too. I wanted more sauce but didn't have any more on hand so I used a can of original Manwich!!!! I also doubled the mozzarella. Wow this is gooooooooood!

Fabulous recipe for a "Basic Meat Lasagna" and a great recipe for times when you want lasagna but don't have the time to make it from scratch! This is very easy to throw together and perfect for a hearty weeknight meal. So if your're in the mood for Italian but think you don't have the time - think again. I used 1 lb. of ground beef and 1 lb. of mild Italian sausage. I also doubled the sauce using Classico Marinara and added a little red wine and some fresh basil to give a bit of a flavor boost. I just layered everything as I usually do using no boil lasagna noodles which really makes things easy and topped it with a mix of shredded Parmesan and mozzarella cheeses. Great with garlic bread! (leftovers freeze well)

I gave it four stars because I wan't sure if the noodle was supposed to be cooked or not. I followed others' advice and pre-soaked them. They tasted a little gummy-starchy. I used two jars of Italian sausage sauce...added oregano, basil, garlic powerder...yum! Thank you for sharing.
