I like to fix the chunky meat sauce for this dish the day before, so the flavors can blend. It serves 12, unless you have big eaters who will definitely want seconds. —Betty Pearson, Edgewater, Maryland

I modified this recipe using mushrooms instead of the meat to make it vegetarian. The different cheeses make it an excellent variation of your typical lasagna.

Absolutely loved this recipe. I used Johnsonville sweet italian sausage and added a few slices of provolone. To die for!

My husband and I both loved this lasagne. This is "our" lasagne recipe now.It is very rich, so you can't eat too much at a time, but with a nice side salad it is perfect.

Like some other reviewers, I thought the Swiss cheese would be strange in lasagna. Duh! It was really great with the other cheeses. I used more than the remaining 1/2 cup of mozzarella on the top because I had about a cup left over after all the layering. It got beautiful and chewy in the oven. This is a definite keeper. Yummity! Yum! Yum!

Best lasagna I have ever had! I only used one lb ground beef. And I don't know what bulk italian sausage is, so I just used ground breakfast sausage. Other than that, I made it just like it says. Absolutely delicious!!! This will definitely be a family favorite! My 2 year and 1 year old loved it, too!!!

Excellent my husband doesn't like cottage cheese so this was great for him. I used neufchatel cheese instead of cream cheese to decrease the fat might try fat free cream cheese next time.

This is good, but VERY rich. I think that the sausage, combined with all of the cheese is a bit too much. I would probably make it again, but use only hamburger and probably half the amount of cream cheese. Also, the recipe calls for salt, which, when combined with the sausage, just makes it too salty. I may still include it if I leave out the sausage, but with the sausage, you definitely don't need any additional salt.

I said what the heck and tried this recipe, made a few little changes, My guy said this was the best Lasagna he ever ate, I second that. I am now not afraid to make lasagna, Thanks Excellent, Oh I used Chorizo for my meat, and added sweet red peppers.

For some reason, I didn't really like this lasagna. I think if I were to make it again, I would decrease the cream cheese slightly.

I had never tried making lasagna with cream cheese. It has so much more flavor than with Ricotta or Cottage cheese. I was afraid the flavor of the Swiss cheese would be overpowering but it wasn't, all the flavor blended nicely. My new favorite!

The Dutch Oven is just a large pot used to make the sauce. Lasagna is assembled and cooked in a 13 x 9 baking dish. Haven't made this yet but sounds good.

I was a little unsure about trying Swiss cheese in a lasagna but I'm sure glad I did. We loved it! My husband said it gave the lasagna that extra "zing". It made a lot - I was glad because it tasted even better the second night. This one's a keeper!
