Krazy Kitchen Mom Tips
- For this recipe make sure you are using an oven-safe skillet. If the handle on your skillet is not oven-safe, cover the entire handle with two layers of aluminum foil before placing it in the oven.
- You will need to cover the pan with a lid when you place it in the oven. No lid? No problem! Use non-stick aluminum foil.
- No non-stick aluminum foil? No problem! Spray a piece of aluminum foil with non-stick cooking spray.
- Do not serve the lasagna right away. Let it sit for 10-15 minutes so it has time to rest and allow the cheese and sauce to set.

I would definitely be trying this skillet lasagna recipe! My daughter has been begging me to make traditional lasagna and it is just so time-consuming. Thank you for sharing your recipe and opportunity to win the pan :))
I hope you enjoy the lasagne recipe. By the way, I used the no-cook noodles which made it even easier!
Tastes really good but the baking time is way too long.
Glad you like it. Since most ovens are different it’s always good to check throughout the cooking time.
