This is what my kids ask me to make for birthday dinners. I add a pint of Ricotta cheese instead of sour cream, and sometimes swap out hamburger for Italian sausage. My sister-in-law Savanah taught me to add add two teaspoons of brown sugar to the tomato sauce and browned hamburger, which is also amazing.
The birthday dinner was complemented by garlic bread and an incredible fresh salad from the garden. The reason you don't see those other foods in this photo is because I made the lasagna in the morning before it got too hot (Truman's birthday is at the end of August). So I had the above piece of lasagna for lunch while kids were at school and hubby was at work. Then we all had lasagna for dinner. It's that good.
Also, just my personal opinion, there is no such thing as "oven-ready" lasagna. You have to boil the noodles, people. There's no escaping it.
