Classic Lasagna image

I make this a lot and serve with Italian garlic bread and salad. It always gets a rave review, especially if the mozzarella strings with every bite. This recipe comes from my mother. I think she got it off the back of a "Mueller's Lasagna box.

I did not like this lasagna. The flavors did not meld well together and the texture was unappetizing.

This lasagna was terrible! The noodles were mushy and the filling was bland. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

This lasagna was good but not great. The flavors were a bit bland and the noodles were a bit overcooked. I would still recommend it to others but I would make a few changes next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out great! The lasagna was cheesy and flavorful, and the noodles were cooked perfectly. I will definitely be making this again.

This was absolutely delicious! I used no-boil lasagna noodles which made it super easy to assemble. I also used a combination of ground beef and Italian sausage for the filling. My family loved it and said it was the best lasagna they had ever had.
