I normally buy a box or two of no boil lasagna noodles and follow the recipe on the box with a few variations, i,e. extr spices, meat, veggies.
Customize the dish to your taste and you will not be dissapointed.
I like to sometimes make my lasagna using slices of zucchini instead of the noodles. Then make meat sauce and use mozzarella and ricotta cheese.
Spinach really gives lasagna a great flavor.I use fresh spinach and wilt it.

Press noodles lightly into sauce. Spread all the ricotta mixture over noodles. Sprinkle with 1 cup mozzarella cheese; top with 2 cups beef sauce. Top with remaining noodles in single layer; press into sauce. Top with remaining beef sauce.

My parents and I love spinach and veggies so we absolutely LOVE this lasagna.
9 whole wheat lasagna noodles (about 8 oz)
1/2 cup onions, chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 lb ground turkey
1 cup mushrooms, thinly sliced
1 green pepper, deseeded and diced
1 large tomato, diced
3 cups tomato sauce
2 teaspoons oregano
1 teaspoon basil
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
6 cups fresh spinach, chopped
2 cups fat-free ricotta cheese
3 teaspoons dried chives
8 ounces part-skim mozzarella cheese, grated
Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a large nonstick frying pan with vegetable cooking spray. Cook onion and garlic for several minutes stirring constantly. Add turkey and cook (crumbling the meat fine) until barely done about 4 minutes (if using precooked rinsed meat you don't need to cook for 4 minutes, just go to the next step). Add the mushrooms and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Add the green pepper, tomato, tomato sauce, oregano, basil, parsley and pepper and simmer 2-3 minutes. Remove frying pan from heat. While the sauce is cooking, cook noodles in a large pot of boiling water that has been sprayed with vegetable cooking spray until al dente. Drain noodles and rinse with cold water and drain. In a bowl, combine ricotta and chives, mix in spinach. Spray a 9x13-inch baking pan with vegetable cooking spray. Arrange 3 lasagna noodles on the bottom of the pan. Spread evenly with one third of the ricotta mixture, then one third of the turkey mixture, and sprinkle with one third of mozzarella. Repeat twice with remaining ingredients. Bake for about 25 minutes or until cheese bubbles. Cool at least 5 minutes before cutting.
Enjoy!
This is different and very delicious!
