I really didn't enjoy this one at all. The hubby said it was ok and one of his coworkers said it was good. I don't know if I cooked it for too long or what but it def didn't have the taste I was looking for. I will def stick to a more traditional way of making lasagna (although the lasagna toss was pretty good). But this is one I def will not make again! Feel free to make it and if you do let me know what you think!
