    Used all ricotta instead of a mix, but it turned out very well! I covered the lasagna with foil in the oven. Thanks for a great recipe! - 1/29/09

    Incredible!
    Just tried this tonight and it is WONDERFUL!!!! Definitely a keeper, and it's so versatile....I used the Healthy Choice marinara sauce and only six lasagna noodles, since my pan was a bit shallow, but I'll be taking this to my next potluck. - 8/15/08
