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...
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!
FANTASTIC!!! I love a good homemade lasagna you can't beat them - so much better than store bought. Very time consuming to make but always worth it! Anyway made this over the weekend for my mom and dad's birthday dinner & I loved that this one uses tomato paste and tomato sauce instead of jarred pasta sauce. I didn't have Italian sausage so I used a combo of lean ground beef and some ground pork. I also added some fresh zucchini and grated carrots and my usual dash of nutmeg to the ricotta mixture. A great tip is to soak uncooked lasagna noodles in hot water for 20-30 mins while you are prepping everything else - no need to boil the water and cook the noodles as they finish cooking when the lasagna goes in the oven! I made this on the Friday left it sitting uncooked until the Saturday and then cooked that afternoon. So yummy. Great with a nice salad and Italian Pinwheel Rolls from this site mmmmm!!
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!!
Made this for dinner and it was a hit! Minus the spinach which I will try next go round and this time I added ground turkey and turkey sausage instead of italian sausage. Love it!
delicious! I added mushrooms to the meat sauce.
This is absolutely the best lasagna I've ever had. I had to sub a coupla items because we don't have ricotta or Italian sausage where I live (China) so I subbed tofu and made my own sausage. I only had two eggs. Added some extra veggies (zucchini mushrooms grated carrots) but it would have been just fine without that. I would rate this higher if I could. I even had some for breakfast this morning and it was even better. I can't believe more people have not tried this recipe. After reading the reviews of other lasagna recipes I found that most people made changes that were already included in this outstanding recipe.
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.
