Delicious vegetarian lasagna recipe!February 12, 2008By bon12345
"This is an amazingly delicious recipe. I used extra cheese - chunks of fresh mozzarella - because I just love cheese. Its also not too difficult or complicated - you can make this even if you don't have much cooking experience. And then you'll want to make it again! I definitely recommend this to people who are vegetarians or trying to cook more veggie recipes, especially if you have folks you are cooking for who are not that keen on vegetables. You will not miss meat one tiny bit when you eat this lasagna."
