Gluten Free Skillet Lasagna
This recipe is easy to make gluten free. I have made this recipe for years. I used to use regular pasta, but now I use gluten free pasta. Both work well. I have found that gluten free pasta usually needs a little extra water added.
For the gluten free version also be sure to read labels to make sure that your ingredients are gluten free.
