One Pot Lasagna is great for satisfying my lasagna craving when I don’t have time to make lasagna. It has the flavors of lasagna but you can definitely tell it is a different dish. Strangely this has become one of my favorite dishes for a week night meal. I love that it is all in one pot.
I like to add extra spice by adding hot pepper flakes to the sausage when it is browning. If you don’t like as much spice then buy mild sausage and don’t add red pepper flakes.
