This is a non traditional lasagna recipe that will really get you going for seconds. I made one similar way back in 1980. I gave the newspaper cut out recipe away and it became history. Ive been looking for it since. For something outside the box of your regular lasagna i would highly recommend this.

For sometime now I had been searching for a lasagne that didn't call for eggs or ricotta cheese in the recipe. This recipe is similar to the one my grandmother use to make. I thought the soup gave this lasagne a nice creamy texture. My family really enjoyed this lasagne. I even think my grandmother would enjoy it. All I can say is..."thank you" Domestic Goddess for posting this recipe. It's a winner in our house!!

We've tried many different methods of making lasagne, always trying to expand our horizons and until now with excellent results...Unfortunately, this one went to the dogs...The main difference in this recipe is the use of canned tomato soup and sliced American cheese and we believe that's what ruined it for us...There's an old saying that if it ain't broke, don't fix it...We far and above prefer using spaghetti sauce rather than the canned tomato soup tomato sauce and tomato paste combo in this recipe (eeewww) and recommend additional mozzarella instead of the sliced American cheese in this recipe (yuck)...The dogs seemed to like it, though ;)
