Moroccan Party Lasagna image

Not your typical lasagna. The lack of ricotta makes this more diet friendly for us, and the feta really fits well with the flavors of the dish. We use brown rice pasta to suit our dietary needs, but wheat pasta would also work. If you don't have oven ready noodles, make sure to cook them prior to assembling the lasagna. Found on Chatelaine's website. Pairs nicely with a green salad.
