SAUCE: Dozens of ready-made spaghetti sauces are pre-seasoned with herbs and spices. Feel free to add fresh garlic, oregano, or basil to upgrade the sauce, if desired. Make a white lasagna by switching the spaghetti sauce for a jar of Alfredo sauce.

ADD-INS: Mix in crumbled Italian sausage or ground beef, chopped spinach or zucchini, diced tomatoes, or chopped black olives for more color and flavor.
