This deconstructed lasagna is made in one pan, in less than 30 minutes and only uses 5 ingredients. Basically the perfect weeknight dinner recipe.This go-to recipe for a lazy lasagna is a favorite in my home. My husband loves it. This deconstructed lasagna is the ultimate comfort food that honestly takes minimal effort!

Notes
- To make an gluten free lasagna make sure to use gluten free lasagna noodles and make sure the tomato sauce is also gluten free! This is an easy swap to make this gluten free lasagna skillet! I made the gluten free lasagna recipe version in these photos!
- To make this vegan, I skip the ground meat and use dairy free cheeses! To make this a dairy free and gluten free lasagna, use dairy free cheeses and gluten free lasagna sheets!
