| I only recently realized I hate it. My DH bought a frozen one from Vace that other day and the thought of eating it made me want to vomit. I then realized that I have thought for a long time that the idea of it sounds good, but every time I make it or buy it I don't end up eating it. |

I am crazy about Italian food, but not lasagna.
Although I tried it at a cute restaurant in the South on vacay and it was amazing. |

| I can't stand lasagna as it is served commercially.It's just too heavy for me. And since I don't like it in restaurants I have never tried making it at home. No one I know serves it at home either. Oh well! |

| I don't hate it, but I also don't especially like it. I don't understand why other people get so excited about it. If someone serves it, I'll eat it, but would never order it at a restaurant or make it at home. |

I've made big dishes of it for potlucks before and it is gone by the time I get through the line...
It is a popular dish. I'm surprised to hear so many of you saying that you don't like it. |

Makes no sense to me either and I make all my own fesh cheeses...creme fraiche, mozarella, paneer, ricotta, chevre. |

Ricotta is delicious, but those of you eating it with ricotta clearly don't know your lasagna. It's made with bechamel.
For a group of people who thinks they are so well traveled and of global perspective, you sure do have clear trailer trash roots. |

You are in denial. Classic lasagna is made with bechemel. The lasagna everyone eats and knows and 98.7% of the recipes out there? Ricotta. Or worse. Cottage cheese. Low fat. Sigh. |

Put me in the "I'll eat it or make it occasionally, but don't go wild over it" camp. Although since being pregnant, I have started to crave it a bit.
I mix my ricotta with egg and parmesan so it holds together. I've never had it with cottage cheese--that sounds creepy. Stouffer's is okay in a pinch, and they've got a new one with sausage that's pretty good. I love lasagna with zucchini, but have never figured out how to make it without it being super watery. Restaurant lasagna usually grosses me out. In HS and college, I worked a couple places that made huge trays which would sit around forever, and when people ordered it, a chunk would get cut off, microwaved, and stuck under the salamander for a minute. *shudder* |

| I made some great lasagna roll ups this week. I'm not a fan of ricotta so don't usually like it in lasagna, but this recipe called for pesto mixed in. I love pesto and the roll ups were a hit, even my kids loved them! |

My recipe does not use Fritos or fried corn tortillas. Layer the following: Salsa Corn tortillas Seasoned, cooked ground beef or turkey Black beans Sometimes green chilies and onions Sour cream or plain Greek yogurt Shredded cheese I have at least three layers, again preferring thinner layers so it's not sloppy. Baked at 350 until hot and cheese is melty. Maybe 30 minutes. |
