this recipe makes a mean lasagna! i added sliced zucchini, fresh mushrooms and used 4 cups shredded mozz. i didn't have fresh parsley so i substituted with 3 1/2 tablespoons dried. it turned out so yummy! it's time consuming but the end result is well worth the effort. i will be making this again, and again, and again!! thanks for sharing...

My husband made this one night. It was good, but took a long time. Also, the sausage taste didn't really come out, so it seemed a bit of a waste.

Great, but this would have been a nicer presentation w/out as much sauce. I also used the no-boil lasagna noodles (so easy) so I may have used too much sauce (oops). I used 1-1/2 lbs sweet Italian turkey sausage (less grease) Used 3 big tblsps Italian seasoning + 1 tsp of crushed red pepper flakes. Tip: Rub dried herbs between palms of your hands to release their flavor. I added extra Parm & Mozz & used fresh garlic in ricotta mix. 3 cans of tomato paste seemed awful "heavy" to me so, I used only 1 can with 3 cups additional fresh (peeled/seeded) finely diced tomatoes. You can add water (or beef stock?) if needed. I simmered sauce for 3 hours (w/splatter screen over pot) due to using fresh tomatos. If you can plan ahead: assemble and store (covered) in fridge day before cooking for a stress free company dinner. Leftovers freeze well in foiled wrapped individual serving sizes. Update: Replaced the 2 cups of sauce on bottom of pan with a coating of olive oil which produced better end results for myself. You can always serve extra sauce on the side if necessary vs a sloppy runny mess.

great lasagna! I love that it has sausage instead of ground beef...so much more interesting. For anyone who has not tried this, I did and it worked great - instead of boiling the noodles, I laid them on a sheet pan and poured boiling water over them while I was making the red sauce (btw, I like diced tomatoes, so I substitued those instead of tom. sauce and water as called for). Since the dish bakes for 45 minutes, the noodles came out perfect!! So much easier than boiling the noodles.

I made this for Christmas dinner for my family and they raved about it! Even those who don't like lasagna couldn't help but ask for seconds. I added some extra sausage for the meat lovers. This is now my favorite lasagna recipe!

My family really liked this recipe. It takes some time but we were able to make two meals from this. Be sure you are a spinach lover if you decide to use it because I was able to taste it much more than I expected. Delicious!

great and easy lasagna!! I only used 2 cans of tomato paste, omitted the spinach and added fresh sliced mushrooms. I also used the no boil noodles which was alot easier. Must be good because my husband ate a HUGE amount!! Will make again and again!!
