Really delicious and great for a weeknight dinner! I left out the capsicum and didn't bother to cook my lasagne noodles, as they were the sort that just cook in the sauce in the oven. I don't think I used the amount of noodles called for in the recipe and I have no idea what monterey jack cheese is (an American cheese I guess!) so just used cheddar. DH and I both had second helpings served with tomato, lettuce and greek yoghurt - yummy! Might think about throwing in some kidney beans too next time - thank you for posting an easy and versitile recipe, we're looking forward to eating the leftovers!

Oh WOW!!! This was sooooooooo good! We had company over for lunch on Saturday and I made this wonderful lasagna. Everyone had 2 servings!! I only used 6 lasagna noodles, and from the recipe that sounds correct, but a 16 ounce box of noodles typically has 18 noodles in it. We garnished our lasagna with lettuce, tomatoes and sour cream and also mixed in some black beans (Which is something I may add a layer of in the future!). This was very delicious. Thank you so much for sharing this great recipe!

Loved this! I made about 1/2 the recipe. Added 1 celery stalk chopped, 1 can diced tomatos & juice. 1 16 oz bottle taco sauce, sm can sliced olives, parsley flakes, 1/2 tea. cumin & red pepper flakes & a little water to thin sauce. I did not top with lettuce etc. Very good left overs too. Will definately make again.
