Christmas Night Lasagna image

I tinkered with this recipe four or five times before I got it down to what it is now. It's easy-all you do is mess up two pots-but it tastes as good as the lasagnas that are a big production.

This lasagna was delicious! The only thing I would change is that I would use a different type of cheese. I used mozzarella and provolone, but I think a combination of ricotta and Parmesan would be better.
