    Magnificant! Not sure about the quantities in the recipe though. I adjusted as I went along. Used dried pasta sheets and an extra 400g carton of pureed tomatoes to make the uncooked mix 'wet'. Used cottage cheese, white blue cheese and nat yoghurt instead of ricotta as that was what I had in the fridge. Word of advice: Just dont tell courgette-haters that it's courgette until they have had seconds!!

    Fantastic recipe. Really quick and very tasty. I liked the subtle heat from the chilli. Next time I will add some pine nuts for texture. I used dried lasagne sheets and they worked well, plus I doubled the recipe so it served 3. Not worth making for the size they recommend

    Great recipe! Though if I cooked it again, I might add another courgette and more ricotta, as it wasn't really enough for 3 layers. Mine just made 2. It also took a lot longer than 15 mins - maybe more like 30 to prepare. A very versatile recipe though to add other things to - I added mushooms when I cooked it.

    I was slightly disappointed the 1st time I made this so decided to 'tweak'it slightly by sweating off leeks with the courgettes and adding another clove of garlic. I also added half a tub of mascarpone with the ricotta which made a lovely rich, creamy [if calorific!!] sauce. I finished the top with a very thin layer of white sauce topped with plenty of parmesan. Delicious!!!

    What a lovely meal - and easy too, which is a good thing when you are a novice in the kitchen! Think I will add some bacon next time. Will also buy fresh pasta sheets as it was a bit messy to pre cook the dried ones, they stuck together and had to do it in several batches.

    I made this recently but made my own tomato sauce using up some left over red and green peppers. Even the non veggies loved it! :)

    I have made this twice this week for two different people and they both loved it. I made my own pasta sauce with pepper and onion with seasoning and would thoroughly recommend this. FANTASTIC AND DELISCIOUS!!!!!!!!

    I made this with an extra couple of cloves of garlic, a home made tomato sauce and the entire tub of ricotta (it needs it!). I also used mature cheddar as I didn't have any parmesan, and left out the chilli...and it was very lovely! Will definitely be making this again, especially as both my meat loving husband and picky toddler son both liked it too!

    Really tasty veggie dish. Didn't have parmesan so used cheddar instead and used homemade tomato sauce.

    I used philidelphia in place of ricotta cheese because I couldn't get any ricotta at the time, it came out very well... perhaps add a little extra parmesan to the courgette mix to allow for this change. very tasty and simple recipe

    Delicious thanks. I used a tin of tomatoes for the sauce and simmered it with garlic, salt, pepper and a little sugar before adding it to the layers. My local shop didnt have ricotta so I just used a jar of lasagne white sauce and that worked fine.

    I made this tonight for the first time for my meat loving boyfriend and he loved it. I didn't grate the courgette but cut it into chunks and added mushrooms and onions. I also added a tin of chopped tomatoes and put it over the final layer to bulk up the tomato sauce and keep it moist. Next time i think i will add a few herbs and spices for extra flavour. Absolutely delicious - looking forward to making it again.

    This recipe was very tasty. Cubed the courgettes rather than grating them and added onions and extra garlic. Also added nutmeg to the ricotta. Instead of using pasta sauce, just used tinned chopped tomatoes and seasoned. I'll definitely be making this again!

    So filling, no need to have meat with every meal! I made my own tomato sauce (which I make in batches and freeze) which made the lasagne taste lovely and fresh. After two servings we had leftovers and it tasted even better the next day!
