  • “Oh yum!I also saw this on the unreviewed recipes thread, just took me til this weekend to get around to making it.It’s wonderful.Oldest DS wasn’t that impressed but my other 2 kids and hubby loved it.I used oven ready noodles and cottage cheese instead of ricotta coz that’s what I had on hand.I’ll use regular noodles next time tho.These were a little tough.Thanks for a great recipe!”

  • “I accidentally gave another poster a review on this recipe, and then realized I had clicked on the wrong thing! Well YOU are the one all the credit belongs to. I served this to 10 people today, after having it stashed away in my dessert folder for 4 years. They just about licked their plates. The topping is genious! I will be making this a lot and so will 10 happy people, who went home with a new dessert to wow their friends and family with. Thanks for sharing.”

  • “Delicious, and the mixture of ingredients is great.My only problem was with the corner pieces.Some lasagna pieces were hard and could not be chewed.I used a knife to cut little pieces to eat it, for I could not get through it with a fork. But once I realized that that was the way to go, I loved it.”

  • “This unusual dessert tasted delicious and was easy to make.The friends I made it for raved for months and it is a popular request for potlucks.My only complaint is that a 9×13 pan was slightly too big — the layers were thin and the noodles didn’t cover the bottom.”

  • “Well I really hate to rate this so low, but no one in my family or guests cared for this dish. The opinion was the majority that it was the cheese in it that they really disliked. They didn’t care for the cheese flavor in the apple pie flavor, then it dawned on me that some people do put a slice of cheese on thier apple pie, for those people I’m sure this would be a great tasting dish. But for us, we would rather have an old fashion apple pie.”

  • “This dessert is really tasty and satisfying – and quick to make. I baked this in a Pampered Chef Deep Dish Clay Baker.I doubled the cinnamon and used several pinches of fresh-ground nutmeg.My husband and I both like this very much, with him suggesting trying sharp cheddar cheese next time.And there will be a next time!Thanks for sharing a wonderful recipe!I made this again, but this time, instead of oatmeal, I used toasted sliced almonds on top.Yummy! “
