Never tried inside out lasagna? Well here you go, give it a try! It’s an easy lasagna recipe that eliminates most of the work!
My sweet husband got me a subscription to EatingWell magazine for Christmas. This inside out lasagna recipe was listed under “Dinner in a Bowl.” Since I am always looking for a fast, healthy, tasty meal I thought we’d give it a try. As a bonus, the magazine pointed out that this meal is only $2/serving! We all liked it so now I’m sharing it with you! As you can probably tell from the picture, we added Italian sausage. yummy.
How Long Will Lasagna Keep?
Left over lasagna will keep for 3-5 days in the refrigerator.
Lasagna should be kept in a container with a lid or covered with plastic wrap.
How Do You Reheat Lasagna?
To reheat lasagna, cover it with aluminum foil and bake it in the oven at 350° F until it is hot clear through.
What Could You Substitute For Ricotta Cheese?
Cream cheese is a good substitute for ricotta because it has a similar soft, creamy texture.
However, cream cheese has more fat than ricotta cheese.

I loved this as well. I thought 1/2 tsp of crushed red pepper was I bit too much. I will cut it in half next time. I kept mine vegetarian, without the meat. I also plan to try it using a homemade marinara sauce instead of the tomatoes.

This looks really delicious and so much better for you. I had a subscription to Eating Well a couple of years ago and loved it.
Hope you are feeling well!
