Lasagna isn't really my thing. I will happily eat it when others prepare it, but I've always found it to be sort of fussy and unappealing to make on my own (all that pasta pre-boiling and careful layering just left me cold). Besides, I always felt like you could get comparable flavors with a pasta bake - noodles tumbled together with garlicky red sauce, sauteed spinach and a carton of ricotta cheese and topped with a generous layer of mozzarella cheese has always been my favorite.
However, having seen the grilled veggie lasagna that Julie posted yesterday, I'm starting to rethink my previous anti-lasagna position. For one thing, the step-by-step pictures she took are really lovely and show off the rustic beauty of the grilled veggies. Her recipe also reminded me that you can use no-bake noodles, rendering one of my lasagna complaints moot. And lastly, seeing it done, it just doesn't look that difficult or fiddly. I may be a convert sooner, rather than later.
How about the rest of you? Are you a lasagna maker or more of a pasta bake person?
