i make this lasagna frequently. its a wonderful vegetarian dish, very unique. i make it as a "normal" lasagna, its just easier for me that way. the only way i deviate from the recipe is to sometimes use whole grain pasta, and i also put a little jarred alfredo sauce on the bottom of the lasagna pan to keep the dish from sticking. definately a fave!

This recipe is wonderful, make it just as it states then pour a little extra sauce over it when you serve, very very good and elegant enough for the in-laws!

I thought this was pretty good and did have flavor. I agree that the flavor was "uniform" to steal a word from a previous reviewer. I added chopped jalapeno - the sweet and spicy combination is to die for. I love the creaminess of the filling and adding the jalapeno and mixing in some whole corn to the mix at the end takes this recipe up to 5 stars for me.

I read the various reviews before making this. I have to say it came out great! I used a non-stick spray, about 1 tsp salt & 1/4 tsp black pepper. I'm mystified why some say there's no taste. There's plenty of flavor in the filling. I did add some sundried tomatoes as one reviewer suggested. All in all a great dish! Thanks Giada!

Loved the fresh and creamy flavor. But, I'm not keen on uniform flavor throughout, so I added cremini mushrooms and spinach. It was great, with a nuttiness from the mushrooms, but next time I will add asparagus also.

I made this dish for a lunch date with my friends. The presentation was impressive in the individual ramekins with the perfectly browned cheese on top. I read the reviews before I went shopping and decided to add marinated sundries tomatoes. I think it added a nice punch to the recipe. I used all organic ingredients. It was absolutely delicious! My friends were raving on how good everything tasted. I loved the flavor of the lemon zest; It gave this rich dish a lighter feel. I also served it to my husband for dinner and he was impressed as well. I would highly recommend.

Wow, I was blown away with all the negative comments regarding this recipe. (I had not read them before making We made these mini-lasagnas with the brussel sprout salad she had with it on the show, but added lamb chops for our Valentine's dinner. It was absolutely fantastic!!! It was a unique blend of tastes that managed to be rich and decadent and light and fresh all at the same time! I will definitely make these again when I want to make an impression and blow everyone's socks off. No-this is not a healthy meal, but a special occasion one. If one wanted to, you could serve straight from the ramekins.

Beautiful but sweet, bland and odd tasting, all at the same time. May try again at some point, using less than 1/4 cup of the mixture between layers and maybe adding sundried tomato, squash and/or asparagus tips. Wanted more veggies or something in it.

After reading all the reviews about how it was too sweet, I decided to use regular whole kernel corn rather than sweet corn. I also tried to make it very healthy using wheat noodles and reduced fat or skim diary products. While the idea of "mini" lasagnas is great, everything about this recipe was average. Nothing amazing. I'd rather use the idea of mini lasagnas with my favorite lasagna recipe. The whole time I was eating this, I was quite surprised that Giada picked this recipe to serve to Prince William & Kate. Again, nothing amazing.

I have made a number of Giada's before. All were good to excellent. Never again for the ramekin lasagne. It was a nasty tasting mess.
