Absolutely LOVED this lasagna. There are tons of lasagna recipes on this site... what sets this one apart is the Mediterranean twist with the addition of feta & roasted red peppers. To cut some fat calories I reduced the cheeses & noodles abit. I didn't have quite enough spinach so I sub'd some red swiss chard. Great flavours and nice balance of layers, thanks for sharing.
