Shortcut Lasagna image

My mother and I have been making this lasagna for more than 15 years. The "shortcut" is not having to cook the noodles first, so it's not only quick and easy, but also delicious. My husband and our three children all love it when we have this for dinner.-Jeannette Anderson, Lake Village, Indiana
