I wasn't a big fan of this lasagna. The eggplant was too mushy and the sauce was too bland. I think I would prefer a more traditional lasagna recipe.

I had some trouble finding roasted eggplant, so I used grilled eggplant instead. It worked out great! The lasagna was still delicious and I would definitely make it again.

This lasagna was a bit too rich for my taste. The eggplant was a bit overpowering and the sauce was very heavy. I think I would prefer a more traditional lasagna recipe.
