This lasagna has just the right amount of zing to it. The key to this is the andouille sausage...probably not good for anyone counting calories either! The meat mixture would be good served over fettuccine noodles, if you would like to save time

Haven't tried this yet but it looks interesting! A little something different for those who are tired of the traditional Lasagna. I would be tempted to add additional layers of cheese, because I love cheese!
