I've been making this lasagna recipe for a couple of years now and it always comes out great. It feeds a lot of people and is definitely a crowd pleaser. The only change I make is to add less brown sugar than 2 tablespoons. I don't like the sauce to be so sweet. Other than that, this is a great recipe to keep going back to.

This lasagna is the best I've ever eaten. My family LOVES it. I've made it several times for friends who have new babies or just because and everyone always raves about it. I've been told this is the best lasagna ever so many times that I feel like a chef. :) I'd suggest adding one 15 oz can of tomato sauce to make the meat mixture less dry. Also, I use one 14 1/2 oz can of diced tomatoes with the basil, oregano mixture already added and one plain. I then add the spices the recipe asks for as well. It's not too much spice. It's just right. Also, like others have said, it requires more cooking time in my opinion. I use an aluminum pan to bake it in, cover the lasagna with non-stick aluminum foil (non-stick side down) and bake at 350 for an hour. Then, I remove the foil and bake for another 20 minutes. This recipe is best when you make it and refridgerate it overnight to bake the next day. Yummy!

I've made the recipe serveral times now with the addition of fresh mushrooms. I also added spinach to the ricotta. Just make sure you squeeze out the excess water before mixing it with the ricotta. This is a keeper.

This is definitely our favorite. I make a few of them at once and freeze them with cooking directions on the tin foil. Then I always have something on hand for some one in need, or a new neighbor or if I'm running late. Delicious. Thanks for the recipe!

My husband made this for a potluck 2 years ago, and people still beg him to bring it again. People who didnt even work for the company at the time ask him for the recipe!

This is a fantastic recipe! My husband even said that it was BETTER than his mom's (which is a huge compliment, she's a great cook). I do add a little more cheese than it calls for though.

Bloody brilliant. I followed the other reviewers' comments, and this was the most brilliantly grand lasagna I have had.

Wow!! Wonderful flavor! Be sure and simmer the sauce the maximum amount of time. Making the lasagna a day ahead and refrigerating is definitely key! I made this a second time, and used Italian-seasoned turkey sausage, ground in my food processor. What a difference it made - will definitely do that again!! Also note that 1 tsp. dried basil works if you don't have fresh basil on hand, and lowfat ricotta is just fine as well. I bake mine covered with aluminum foil to prevent it from drying out. I have made this lasagna several times, and like others, I think it could use more sauce. I will add a 14.5 oz. can of Italian-style diced tomatoes next time, and increase the spices a bit. Thanks for the recipe!!

I found this recipe here years ago and have been making it when ever the Hubby wants it. I cut recipe in half just because it's only the 2 of us. We love it and I don't change a think.

THE best lasagna I've ever tasted! And, it fits in a regular 9x13 pan, so you don't have to buy a new pan or plan for your meal flowing over the sides and ending up burnt at the bottom of your oven. Everyone I've given this recipe to thinks it's the best they've ever had. I do only make two layers, rather than three, because it's a lot easier to divide up evenly and get into the pan. I've even made this is a giant crock pot (without first cooking the noodles) and it worked beautifully there, too. Try this recipe! You can't go wrong!

I tried this receipe almost 3 years ago and I liked it so much I had to relook up the information to get the ingredients again. The brown sugar adds a hint of sweetness which makes it very nice. I truly recommend everyone try this.

My friend brought me this after I had a baby and my family had to have the recipe. This is very good and I can be picky with lasagna. I like a lot of sauce and cheese and this recipe has it. I used 2 lbs of hamburger so I used about a cup of jarred sauce to make up for it. I also used the no-boil lasagna noodles because I hate to boil the regular kind. It is a little time consuming to make but well worth it. Next time I might use sausage instead to give it a different twist.
