Four-Cheese Lasagna image

Cheese really stars in this lighter lasagna, which I created a few years ago. It can be prepared ahead of time and baked later. I sometimes make up a couple batches and freeze them in case company drops by. -Janet Myers, Napanee, Ontario

I made this lasagna last night and it was a hit! My family loved it. The only change I made was to use a different type of cheese. I used a combination of mozzarella, cheddar, and Parmesan cheeses.
