Easiest Lasagna Ever

This no-bake lasagna is the easiest recipe partly because it’s made with simple ingredients but mostly because there’s no baking or a ton of layering involved.

Instead, you will assemble the cooked ingredients directly into your bowl (for dinner) or thermos (for lunch. It goes a little like this- sauce, lasagna noodles, cheese, more lasagna noodles, more sauce, and more cheese.

How easy is that, and you get all the classic lasagna flavors in a fraction of the time! Who doesn’t love the sound and taste of that?
