This hearty casserole looks and tastes a lot like lasagna, but it's quicker to prepare since you don't have to layer it. It disappears fast when I share it at a gathering. Served with rolls and a salad, it makes an easy and satisfying supper. -Harriet Stichter, Milford, Indiana

I often make this recipe but add ricotta and fresh parmesian. It is always a hit and have been asked for the recipe many times

I use my own homemade spaghetti sauce, and add some sliced zucchini, olives and garlic! It's AWESOME!

I made this for my son-in-law's 50th birthday party. Absolutely everyone loved it. Thank you for a delicious recipe. I also made the white cake with raspberry sauce from your book. I had a few variations but it disappeared quickly. Thanks again.
