I concocted this quick and easy recipe to use up some of the abundant fresh produce from my garden. When I made a batch to share at a church potluck, I received lots of compliments. -Bernice Baldwin, Glennie, Michigan

This is the best lasagna I have ever made! Perfect to reheat for lunch at work! I will be making this recipe for years to come!!

Made this for a birthday lunch and we had it for dinner, and the birthday girl asked for the recipe...I used daiya cheese (non-dairy cheese) and added black beans...there was no yellow summer squash in November...look forward to eating the leftovers...again and again..also skipped the oil and stir-fried in water....yummy!

My family was skeptical when I made this for the first time...now it is always requested and everyone LOVES it! I haven't met anyone yet who didn't enjoy this!

This was very good! My husband doesn't care for any kind of squash so I left out the zucchini and summer squash and simply used more of the other veggies.

this is delicious, However I never cook the noodles for any lasagna I make, thew juice from the other ingredients cook them and it is a lot quicker and simpler

This is a wonderful recipe that is even loved by a guy who typically wants meaty meals!
