I made this dish over the summer when I did not want to heat up the house. It tasted great! The next time I make it though, I will not use a double layer of the lasagna noodles as recipe called for. The bottom layer was not completely cooked and came out kind of pastey. Otherwise this recipe is the "bomb"! Thank you for posting AshelyP. 8)
