Why would you put onion soup in Lasagna? That is just gross. I would never use that in Lasagna
Then don’t.
I just love how easy this recipe is! I can’t wait to add it to the dinner menu this week!
Hope you love it!
This turned out fantastic, I wouldn’t change a thing!
So glad you enjoyed it!
Your recipe says “no cook” lasagna noodles. Does that mean regular lasagna noodles that are uncooked or something else?
They will say “No Cook” on the box!
My hubby loves lasagna too! Well, we all do! I’ll have to try your skillet option, looks absurdly delicious!
I’m SO glad I saved this in my inbox for later reading. It’s bookmarked and ready to be made. It looks absolutely fantastic. I love the fact that I don’t have to use the oven or take the time putting the layers together. That’s the kind of thing that’s made me shy away from lasagna. Thanks for passing this along.
Wow – in a skillet?! Cool…I have never heard of onion soup in lasagna! Good luck with work after the weird lightening!
What a great way to make lasagna. Very creative and looks delicious.
