Directions
Lasagna Casserole – Fake Lasagna, A really simple casserole that my family loves. It tastes like lasagna but is half the work. It makes alot, so I usually divide it into 3 dishes and freeze two. A real kid-pleaser., I have made this recipe 3 times now. I LOVE it! I usually make 3 8×8″ casseroles, and will freeze 2. They actually taste better once they’ve been frozen. I probably use slightly less mozzarella and pasta sauce, and sometimes I sautee mushrooms in with the onions if I have some. I love this dish, Let me start out by saying that I made several changes due to a certain someone in my family not liking cheese, etc… ;- It still turned out great! My changes: used rigatoni, half the amount of all cheeses and not even putting extra on top, used ground turkey and only used 2 jars of marinara sauce. With that said, I think this recipe is probably indestructible. I’m glad it made a big pan because I will have it for work lunches the next few days! Thank you!
