    This lasagana was pretty good, but for all of the trouble I definitely wouldnt make it again. I even added more spice and still thought it was bland. Family thought it was "ok" but said that I shouldnt make again...

    This was absolutely delicious!!! I read the other reviews before making it & I added one extra portabello & 2 packages of spinach. I didnt have enough spinach & mushrooms to make all the layers the recipe calls for, but it still turned out great. Next time I probably add 3 more portobellos & 3 or maybe even 4 of the spinach. Although I had never made a roux or a bechamel sauce before I didnt find them difficult at all. When adding the milk to the roux for the sauce I just poared it slow & steady while wisking continuously at the same time. I did the same with the parmesan and it came together absolutely perfect. I will definiatally make this again, although be ready to wash dishes, you will use alot!

    The lasagna turned out great and my guests enjoyed it. I would have added more mushrooms and make sure that you strain the spinach really well to get out all of the excess water because I had to pour out water after it was done baking. This did turn out to be more prep work than I expected/wanted, and this recipe created more dirty pots, etc. than anything else I have ever made. Because of that I doubt I will make it again for a long time. But, it was still cheesy and delicious and I actually thought it tasted better when I reheated the leftovers.

    Wow, this recipe was simply amazing. The whole pan was gone within a few hours! Just a few tips--the bechamel sauce took longer than 2-3 minutes to thicken. Also, let the ricotta cheese come to room temp., or it makes it hard to spread the cheeses.

    I found the amount of cheese to be excessive, so I decreased it and increased the amount of spinach and mushrooms to balance the dish more.

    To begin, it took me about two hours to do all the prep and pop this sucker into the oven. And it was a very busy two hours with up to 3 burners going (spinach, lasagna noodles, shallot / garlic / mushrooms.

    This was my first bechamel sauce too, and I had a little trouble getting the parmesan to incorporate smoothly. It was like a big stringy ball of parmesan in a milk soup. I wound up having to raise the heat a bit and continued stirring with a wisk and it eventually worked out fine.

    The end result was delicious and it's fabulous as a cold dish too - we've been eating the leftovers all week and I haven't minded a bit :

    My sister initially gave me the recipe but she hadn't made it so I made it for my employer and we loved it! She now has me make it for dinners that she gives to her friends who may have had a baby or for other occasions.
    It does take a little time but I have found that a great time saver is using the flat sheet lasagna noodles which don't have to be pre-cooked. Also make a few recipes at a time and freeze them for those unexpected guests or when you need to give an impressive dinner but don't have the time. Enjoy!!!

    The recipe turned out great, but I found making the bechamel sauce a little tricky. Note to other amateurs who try it: You have to add the milk VERY slowly - as in a couple tablespoons at a time! It also took longer for the sauce to thicken than the cooking times in the recipe seemed to indicate. The results was delicious though!
