This really was VERY easy. Plus with the extra sauce, cheeses, and noodles...you could easily make 2 more after the inital 2. I would suggest maybe adding 1/4-1/2 cup of extra sauce just cuz it seemed a bit dry. Easy peesy, lemon squeezy (as the kids say) meal for a weeknight.

I made this last night but added 3/4 lb. crumbled italian sausage. It was a bit too salty for my taste but had a real good flavor. My 4-yr-old LOVED it and wants it again tonight. I put it in 4 individual ramekins.

After reading the reviews of my recipe, I realized that most people do not use spaghetti sauce with meat already in it. I make pots of it in the fall and freeze it in Ziplok bags so it can be thawed quickly while the noodles are cooking.

Due to smitrya06's comment, we reviewed the sodium content of this recipe again and it is correct at 1,117 mg. The spaghetti sauce has 620 mg per serving, the mozzarella cheese has nearly 200 mg and the cottage cheese has 220 mg. Plus, the Parmesan cheese and noodles have some sodium.Taste of Home Test Kitchen

This is a nice recipe; however, 1,117 mg of sodium is ridiculously high for a "healthy" recipe. I made many substitutions which consequently turned this into a whole different recipe. I suggest a using a different sauce lower in sodium as well as looking at alternative cheeses like reduced-fat mozzarella cheese.

Very yummy and easy! Has been a hit with everyone I've made it for. Hamburger meat would be a good idea if you wanted a truer lasagna feel but I like this one how it is.

I tripled the recipe and added a pound of lean hamburger to make it heartier. Super easy and delicious! I browned up the hamburger in a large skillet and added the sauce and cheeses, then just folded the noodles into the skillet and stuck the whole thing in the oven. This is a definite repeat!

I really liked this recipe, although I was dissapointed with how much it lacked in substance. When I think of lasagna I think of meat, cheese, noodles all in layers. This just seemed to be a simple pasta recipe, not lasagna. I gave it a good review though because it was easy, quick, and it did taste really good. I may add some ground beef next time to add the substance I was looking for. I will definitely make this again.
