overall, very tasty. but the sauce didn't yield a whole heck of a lot, so i would have to double the next time. i did add a bit of red wine to the sauce as it simmered (and i probably wouldn't let it simmer as long- it started to scald). but, the sauce was very flavorful, even without the wine, and the lasagna itself was very delicious. my husband and picky 2 year old loved it!

Wow, this is fabulous. Couple pieces of advice, though. Firstly, just use regular sausage. I don't understand why you'd want to use link sausage in a lasagna recipe. Secondly, DO NOT try to fit all of this into a 9x13 pan. Go out and buy yourself a bigger pan - you'll be very thankful you did. I followed the advice of others and made more sauce, which I did the day before in the crockpot so that I wouldn't have to babysit it. I also assembled the lasagna early in the day and popped it in the oven right before my party. This makes enough to feed a small army. Enjoy!

I enjoyed this lasagna and so did my family. The sauce was delicious, I added an extra can as suggested by others and let it simmer for about 5-6 hours. I used Italian turkey sausage and ground turkey, still tasted great. I will definitely use this recipe again.

Best lasagne I've ever had! I cautiously made a half recipe, but it worked wonderfully in a 9x13 dish. With the reduced recipe, the lasagne wasn't piled as high, and with ready-to-bake noodles, it was done baking in under an hour. The second time I made it, I added more sauce, more garlic, and took the sausage out of the casing before browning it.

Very good. I used no boil lasagne noodles and made it up a day ahead. I added about a half pound of mushrooms as an extra layer. It took the full 1.5 hours and maybe a little more.

Yummy! The sauce tasted so good! I added another can of tomates and had more then enough sauce. I didn't even need the extra sauce. I also used bulk sausage which was perfect, and used a very deep pan. I think I ended up with 6 layers. It feed the army of guests that I had and we even had leftovers for a couple of days. Excellent!!
