This is so simple but very delicious and simple to make. I hope you enjoy it! You can always substitute if you want and if you have any good recommendations let me know!

Tips:
- Choose thin asparagus spears, about 1/4-inch thick, for more even cooking.
- Trim the asparagus spears by snapping off the tough ends.
- Use a large skillet to cook the asparagus so that they have room to spread out and cook evenly.
- Don't overcrowd the skillet with asparagus, or they will steam instead of sautéing.
- Cook the asparagus over medium-high heat so that they get a slight char.
- Use a variety of cheeses in the lasagna for a more complex flavor. Try a combination of mozzarella, cheddar, and Parmesan cheeses.
- Use a no-boil lasagna noodle to make the lasagna easier to assemble.
- Let the lasagna rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving so that it has time to set.
Conclusion:
This 3-Cheese Asparagus Lasagna is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of asparagus, cheese, and pasta is sure to please everyone at the table.
