Almost Lasagna

I love pasta, I love lasagna, I hate making lasagna. When I found this recipe I knew I just had to try it. It is exactly "almost lasagna", plus the addition of lots of veggies. Yum. This is also a fast recipe to put together. Literally I had all ingredients cooked, and ready to place in the oven in under 15mins.

2 cups frozen veggies (optional)

Cook pasta according to directions
