When I saw a lasagna recipe that did not call for precooking the noodles, I was anxious to try this time-saving shortcut. Making some changes and additions to suit my taste, I developed this popular dish that I now call my own.

Excellent and easy! This also was my first attempt at lasagna, it turned out great. My picky kids loved it.

I have NEVER made a lasagna before and was REALLY skeptical about this but I thought other people have done it with success so I tried it. And I'll be darned it worked and the family loved it.

This is one of my favorite recipes from Taste of Home. I used HOT sausage to spice things up.
