  • “Very good!Will add spinach and mushrooms next time.”

  • “This is heaven in a dish!I used half cottage cheese and half ricotta, adding an egg, salt and freshly ground pepper, and parsley, then mixed together in my blender and poured in layers between the noodles.When baked it firmed up and was a delicious layer in with the seafood layers and cream sauce.We all LOVED this and it is now on my list to be made again for my niece’s graduation party!Thanks Manda for this one!”

  • “This was the best thing I think I’ve ever cooked!I added finely diced carrots and broccoli, and put seafood and veggies in each layer, not just the top one … The lasagna was smooth and creamy and kept it’s shape well.It was pretty easy to make too … my guests LOVED it!”

  • “The sauce was good, just thought it needed something else, maybe some spinach as another reviewer suggested. Also, I didn’t care for the canned crab in this. Thanks for posting:)”

  • “It seems overwhelming seeing all of the ingredients, but it is actually a very simple recipe and quite quick for a lasagna.It was very delicious as well!”

  • “This recipe has an uncanny resemblence to the one on the campbells website… canned shrimp are easily replaced with frozen if thawed and fried with garlic and olive oil… I also used scallops and zucchini.”

  • “Really rich & yummy. Simple to put together too. I added zucchini & pumpkin cut into medium dice, as well as some frozen broccoli. I think it needs the veggies to cut the richness!”

  • “This was very good!I cut up some bassa fillets and large prawns, zuchhini and broccoli.I was very happy with the way this set.Thanks for sharing.”
