It was a real hot summer day, but I felt like lasagna, and this was the ONE to make! It was pretty stress-free making it, and the sauce tasted flavorful and homemade. I used 2 fresh tomatoes with 1/2 cup of water for the can of chopped tomatoes and 2 cups of frozen spinach (only partially defrosted, but I read that one could use it frozen successfully). The whole family ate it without complaint (and they are not "lasagna or spinach lovers"), including 2 teens. This was substantial tasting, without being overly heavy (the layers were luscious and fluffy). Thanks Babzy, for posting your recipe. I love lasagna and won't wait so long to make it again.

This was absolutely delicious! I used fat free feta and no boil noodles and it worked perfectly! I was concerned it would be watery, because of the fresh spinach, but it wasn't. This is a definite make again!
