Submitted by MarieRynr

"This delicious version of lasagna is a real big hit with anyone I make it for. It makes a really special Vegetarian dish for a dinner party. Nobody ever complains about there being no meat. Serve with a tossed salad and garlic bread. This also freezes well."

Wondeful!! Made one to share with a friend who had surgery and one for us. Both families loved it! Forgot to pick up green onions so diced and sauteed some sweet onion to add the onion flavor. Such lovely flavors that I wish I'd had some left over to freeze so will have to make this again soon. thanks MarieAlice :)

This was very good. I think in the future I will use un-seasoned artichoke hearts to keep the flavor 'creamy' I will be making this again. I used one 9x13 pan because I didn't have 2 8 inch pans. It bubbled over a little at the corners but turned out fine. Thanks for posting.

I have to add to my previous comment though... I made this recipe 3 more times and it ROCKS!
