  1. I've used this recipe for YEARS, though I've subbed out the no-bake noodles for some whole wheat and added some italian ground sausage to the base layer. The no-bake noodles may need to cook for longer, but it's still delicious.
     
  2. This is the BEST lasagne I have ever eaten. It is wonderful. I used cooked noodles and Ragu Garden Style Sauce. The fresh basil makes this dish absolutely delisious.
