"I based this off of Kathy's Jumbo Stuffed Shells. It is one of our family's favorites, especially of my son Tom." - Calla Ferre
"I've heard people say that lasagna is too hard to make. Not so! It's quick to layer these ingredients, pop it in the oven and do those odds and ends around the house that you need to get done. The most common problem I've heard in making lasagne comes from people putting the dried lasagna noodles directly into the pan. Cook them first! Or buy no-bake noodles, but make sure you know which type you have. And make sure you get all the water out of the thawed spinach. Serve it with some garlic bread and a nice salad (try Italian Bread Salad) for a fabulous Italian meal. Then try Pietro's Tiramisu for an authentic end to the evening." - April Ferre
