This lasagna was a bit too bland for my taste. I think it could have used more seasoning.

The zucchini in this lasagna was a bit mushy. I think it would have been better if it had been cooked for a shorter amount of time.

I'm not a big fan of zucchini, but I actually really enjoyed this lasagna. The zucchini was cooked perfectly and it didn't overpower the other flavors.
