This will now be my "go to" lasagna recipe. I used lean ground beef (7%) as we are not ground turkey fans and the fat content was the same anyway. My husband is very picky about his lasagna as it is his favorite food. We all thought this was a winner - and it sneaks in more veggies for the kids which is always a winner.01/17/10

My husband and I loved this recipe! It was good and easy to make. It actually made 12 servings instead of 9...and those were generous portions! I followed the recipe almost exactly but instead of cooking the lasagna noodles I just put them in dry and let them cook in the oven. I also used an italian seasoning mix instead of parsley. There are so many other ingredients you could add to this and it would be equally delicious.01/12/10
