Tips:

This is a great ‘MAKE AHEAD DISH’.Layer the lasagna and keep it in the refrigerator.Bake when needed.
If using lasagna that needs to be boiled –boil according to instructions.Then layer as per the recipe –note that the baking time will be much lesser.
Add 1 / 2 - 1 cup of frozen spinach when cooking the meat and sauce to include more veggies in this dish.You will be able to see the spinach but it makes no difference in the taste!
