  Tasty and comforting, with a pleasant lemon kick.

  I wasn't sure about this but it worked extremely well. It was more filling than I expected, too. Reheated well next day in the microwave and one portion is still in the freezer for testing. A good family supper now on the 'make again' list.

  does anyone know the nutritional info for this dish-is it very high in fat as it seems to need 200g of cheese in total!

  pj1515, I couldn't tell you the exact nutritional content, but ricotta is a fairly light cheese, and the recipe serves four, so it's not that much per person. If you want to make it healthier, make your own tomato sauce as the ready-made kind often contains a lot of sugar. That's what I did, and I also used a mature hard goats cheese as I didn't have Parmesan. Delicious!!!

  I used cannelloni tubes. I whizzed some canned tomatoes in the processor with some sundried tomatoes. I also used low fat ricotta. I will make this regularly as it disappeared so quickly.

  I liked it but felt it could do with some nutmeg in the ricotta mixture. My husband absolutely hated it.

  According to CalorieCount.com, each serving contains 454 calories, and 13.7g of fat of which 6.0g are saturated. To reduce this, I would use less ricotta in the mix and boost the veggie content. I've also seen a recipe for cannelloni which were filled with a mix of tuna and spinach - maybe not conventional, but a really nice meal! Hope that helps

  Not bad, but I certainly couldn't get it in the oven in 15 minutes in order to get it 'Ready in 30'. Actually could have done with a bit more longer in the oven because the tomato sauce was still very acidic and the pasta not properly cooked. Plus, the portions are distinctly on the small size. Halving the ingredients only produced three cannelloni, which didn't really fill two people. That said, with a little bit of work, it could be quite tasty.

  My pack of fresh lasagne sheets only contained 6, so only enough for 3 people. That said though, it was very filling and tasty.

  Very bland dish, even with addition of nutmeg. Would not make again.

  I make this lasgne time and time again, and have come back to it as we have the courgette glut! I tend to leave the lemon out as I make my own tomato sauce (Marco Pierre White's tomato sauce), which is based on a vinegar reduction and therefore doesn't need any extra acidity. But it is such a quick and simple recipe and is always really, really well received. I pretty much always serve it with a rocket, tomato, red onion and caper salad.

  I found this fairly bland, even after adding sauteed mushrooms, basil, oregano and mace to the mixture. My husband and I are both vegetarians, and he loves pasta with fillings, but he only ate one small portion and suggested that this was not a recipe to make again anytime soon. We both found the lemon unpleasant.
