I found this recipe years ago and simply LOVE it! As lasagnas go, this is pretty easy and also a bit unusual. Like most lasagnas, this is at least as good the second day it's served.
I remember the first time I made this, I wondered about the basil - it seemed strange to me to add it, but I did anyway - it is a must - don't skip it. Please let me know if you like this as much as I do!
