It is easy, I usually buy it on sale, and my family doesn&#8217;t LOVE lasagna, so they don&#8217;t care how gourmet it tastes. I happen to like lasagna and would love to serve it more frequently at our home, so I decided to try a &#8220;pink&#8221; version, since my <a href=\"http:\/\/thehappyhousewife.com\/cooking\/pink-pasta\/\" rel=\"false\">pink pasta recipe<\/a> seems to sneak into dinner plans several times a month.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of lasagna and picky eaters&#8230; you can hide a lot of vegetables in spaghetti sauce without altering the tastes significantly. Just put the spaghetti sauce in the blender along with a few carrots, zucchini, spinach, etc&#8230; and blend. Your kids won&#8217;t know the difference!<\/p>\n<h3>Pink Lasagna<\/h3>\n<p><em>Ingredients<\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>1 jar spaghetti sauce<\/li>\n<li>1 teaspoon garlic powder<\/li>\n<li>Italian seasoning<\/li>\n<li>1 box no boil noodles<\/li>\n<li>16 oz ricotta cheese<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 to 1 pound mozzarella cheese grated<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 cup grated Parmesan or Romana cheese<\/li>\n<li>1 pint heavy cream<\/li>\n<li>shredded zucchini or spinach leaves (optional)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Mix the spaghetti sauce and heavy cream in a bowl.<\/p>\n<p>In a greased 9&#215;13 pan layer: noodles, pink sauce, ricotta cheese, vegetables (optional), shredded mozzarella, and Parmesan cheese.
