Cream Cheese and Swiss Lasagna image

I like to fix the chunky meat sauce for this dish the day before, so the flavors can blend. It serves 12, unless you have big eaters who will definitely want seconds. -Betty Pearson, Edgewater, Maryland

I'm not a huge fan of lasagna, but this recipe was surprisingly good. The cheese and spinach filling was flavorful and moist, and the lasagna sheets were cooked perfectly.

I'm not sure what happened, but my lasagna was a disaster. The cheese was curdling, the lasagna sheets were mushy, and the sauce was bland. I threw the whole thing in the trash.

This was a terrible recipe. The lasagna was bland and the sauce was too salty. I won't be making this again.

I'm not sure if I did something wrong, but my lasagna was a little dry. The flavor was good, but it needed more moisture.

I made this recipe for my family last night and it was a hit! The lasagna was cooked perfectly and the filling was flavorful and moist. I also really appreciated the fact that you used fresh spinach in the recipe; it added a nice pop of color and nut
