Lasagne Rice Casserole

[missy'smom]

I just wanted to share this recipie. I tried to make gluten free lasagne but my family ate one piece each and left me with a whole pan of leftovers( I didn't really care for the texture so it was a shameful waste), so I'm going back to this recipie. I like it better. It comes from a Mennonite cookbook.

My family steers clear of my pasta- I'll have to try the lasagna!

Sounds yummy. I'm always looking for quick family-pleasing weekday meals. I think that might be one to try tonight. Thanks.

Just wanted to add that Tinkyada's lasagna noodles are very tasty. They're extremely hard to work with, but I made a very good lasagna out of them that everyone loved.

Was it the "More With Less" cookbook? I've had that for more than 20 years but haven't looked through it lately; I remember it had a lot of very down to earth, back-to-basics advice for lowering your food bill. I need to check it out again!

Yes, in fact, it was the "More With Less" cookbook. They call this "Pizza Rice Casserole"
