Lisa is right. This is an easy recipe. I am not a person that follows a recipe exactly. I added sliced fresh mushrooms, used leftover grilled green peppers and used an Italian blend of shredded cheese. Delicious! My boyfriend said it was the best lasagne he has ever ate! Even without my substitutions, I know this is a good recipe.

For anyone who would like a little different taste for a "veggie" lasagna. I used the canned tomoates mentioned in another review & they worked great. The cheddar cheese makes it taste so much different than those using mozerella. I used extra cheddar sprinkled between the layers to make it really cheesy. Definitely one to make again!! YUM!
