Microwave Lasagna image

I think that microwaves first came out in the late 70's or early 80's. I was one of the lucky ones to get one back then. This was my favorite recipe from my cookbook that came with my new microwave. My family loved it and I've tweaked it thru out the years. Most of the tweaks are simple but include changing the original recipe...

I followed the recipe but my lasagna didn't turn out as good as I hoped. I think I overcooked it.

The lasagna was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add more spices next time.

I used a different type of cheese than the recipe called for and it still turned out great. This recipe is very forgiving.

This lasagna was surprisingly delicious! I was skeptical about cooking it in the microwave, but it turned out perfect. The cheese was melted and gooey, and the sauce was flavorful. I will definitely be making this again.
