This was my first attempt at lasagna and it turned out pretty great. It helps having a simple recipe to follow! I followed the Hodgson MIll Old Fashioned recipe and changed it up a bit, by using turkey instead of beef and more garlic. Mmm.. garlic! Love the smell and taste of garlic...in a meal and not on your breath, so have some mouthwash on hand ;) lol
