Lasagna Casserole - Fake Lasagna image

A really simple casserole that my family loves. It tastes like lasagna but is half the work. It makes alot, so I usually divide it into 3 dishes and freeze two. A real kid-pleaser.

I've made this fake lasagna several times and it's always a hit. It's a great recipe for a weeknight meal or a potluck dinner.

I'm a big fan of lasagna, but I don't always have the time to make it from scratch. This fake lasagna is a great shortcut. It's quick and easy to make, and it tastes just as good as the real thing.

I made this fake lasagna in a slow cooker and it turned out perfectly. The lasagna was cooked evenly and the cheese was melted and bubbly.

I'm a vegetarian, so I used tofu instead of ground beef in this fake lasagna. It turned out great! The tofu was very flavorful and it held up well in the sauce.

This fake lasagna is a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. My kids loved the cheesy sauce and the hidden vegetables.

I had some trouble finding fake lasagna noodles at my local grocery store. I ended up using regular lasagna noodles and they worked just fine.

This fake lasagna was a bit too rich for my taste. I think I would have liked it better if I had used less cheese.

I'm not a fan of cottage cheese, but I didn't taste it at all in this fake lasagna. The lasagna was very cheesy and flavorful.

This fake lasagna is a great way to use up leftover spaghetti noodles. I always have a few leftover noodles after cooking spaghetti, and this recipe is a great way to use them up.

I've tried many lasagna recipes over the years, but this one is by far the best. The fake lasagna noodles were a game-changer - they cooked perfectly and held up well to the sauce and cheese.
