Cut zucchini into long strips and use instead of lasagna noodles - 6/18/09

holy carp! that's a lot of sodium - 12/1/09

This really was sooo easy and really yummy! I added ricotta to the pasta sauce for a little extra something. I think next time I will use more than 2 c of pasta sauce and use the oven instead of the slow-cooker since the edges of the noodles ended up crispy... - 2/8/09

using ricotta would mean needing more water to keep the noodles moist.
I imagine alot of the sodium comes from the canned sauce (opt for homemade instead) and the cheese (harder to find a way around that) - 10/18/10

I just made this about 15 minutes ago (well, finished making it!), and it was absolutely amazing. I couldn't tell the difference (other than that it was meatless) between this lasagna and restaurant lasagna. LOVE this recipe and will DEFINITELY make it again soon! - 2/23/09

I made this tonight for dinner and it was wonderful! It only took 3 1/2 hrs on my crock-pot so it was ready before I was but I just put the crock pot on warm and it was still perfect! - 2/6/09

Calories are off, but since it serves six, just enter .16 of a serving on meal plan and it will show correct! - 2/2/09

It makes 6 servings so one would be 269.5 calories. I will try to get this corrected.
