Very good. I had to make a few changes because of what I had on hand. FIrst of all, I added in fried sage sausage and used tomato soup in place of tomato sauce. I did not have chopped tomatoes and did not add the spices with the exception of hte garlic, salt and pepper. I mixed everything together in one dish and microwaved since it's hot here. It still turned out very good.

We all liked this a lot, and it was an especially big hit with my son, who loves his vegetables! It was a bit tricky spreading the ricotta mixture evenly on top of the other ingredients. Next time, I would cook the casserole for longer than the recommended 35 minutes because it was extremely crunchy (although the second helpings, kept warm in the oven, were perfect). The casserole creates a lot of lovely juices, which are very tasty mopped up with bread. Good recipe - will make again.
