Pretty average lasagna recipe. Proportions seemed wrong. Guests commented that it needed more meat. One pound of lasagna noodles is too much. It was swimming in spaghetti sauce. I might like it better if made with the same ingredients in different proportions.

***** 10 STARS ***** I am thrilled to be the first one to rate this! It was a most excellent meal served with "I Did It My Way- Tossed Salad" I Did It My Way- Tossed Salad on the side and peach tea as a beverage. Just yummy yummy yummy! I had guest and they loved it. They were surprised I used a jar sauce and said it was better than Olive Garden. I chose this recipe to review for the recipe tag game and I will be freezing what is left (probably only one serving for me) and re-reviewing it at a later date. Thank you- oh yeah...this is my first time making lasagna but you would never know it! — Sep 13, 2005 ***** edited to add 10 more stars ***** I really love this and I love the fact it has the spinach in it. I have un-frozen my one potion that I hid away for the game and couldn't even wait to get it warm to start eating it. It is all gone now and am planning to make it again real soon. Thank you for a wonderful recipe and Thanks to the Freeze it Tag game to make me commit to getting this made so I could find out how much we like it!
