MMmmm, delicious! I always make a few changes, no matter the recipe, so here goes....instead of using bread dough, I used the Herb and Parmesan Pizza Dough (found on this site) from my breadmaker, I added sauteed chicken for my meat-eating hubby, a teaspoon of red pepper flakes (because we like it spicy!), substituted low-fat cottege cheese (I like it in lasgna better, so I thought I'd try it here rather than buying ricotta cheese just for this) and spread sundried tomato pesto as a base before filling. It turned out DELICIOUS!! I love this recipe, and it gives plenty of room for imagination.
