I'm not a big fan of lasagna, but this recipe was surprisingly good. The berries and mascarpone cheese were a great combination.

The crust was a bit soggy. I think I would have baked it for a few minutes longer.

This recipe was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with a more tart berry filling.
