This is as good time as any to tell you that I love my skillet.
love! love! love!
You can bake a Skillet Berry Pie in your skillet, cookies, Dutch Baby Pancake, Vanilla and Orange Scones… (I obviously love my skillet, ha?)
You can also make one-pot dinners in it!
I also love comfort food. Um… who doesn’t? But, comfort food ~ in one pot ~ on a weekday!? Now that’s the best thing, yet.
I probably don’t have to tell you how to make lasagna. Maybe I don’t even have to tell you how to make Skillet Vegetable Lasagna… But, guess what? I’m going to tell you how to make lasagna in your skillet. 😛
This lasagna is pure comfort. It’s that go-to dinner that everyone will approve of. It reminds me of those “Husband is on his way home from work and I’m still on Facebook. I need to make something quick and delicious!” days.
Oh puhlease! As if you don’t have those days… sheeeesh! You can lie to yo Mama, you can lie to yo Hubs, but you can’t lie to me. (Ok. Please tell me that I’m not alone on having those days!)
The reality is, when I’m in no mood to cook a 5-course meal (shhhhh…I’m never in a mood to prepare a 5-course meal), I turn to my beloved skillet and make this lasagna. And just like that, the dreaded, “oh my gah…what am I going to make for dinner?!?!”, becomes, “yaaaaay! I can’t wait to make dinner!!!”
You don’t have to believe me, BUT you should – once you get a taste of this meal, you will, on many more occasions, jump for joy when it’s time to make dinner! 😉

If I made this for my Hubby, he would have to sprinkle fresh Parmesan cheese on it. Sounds great! Pinning!
Thanks, Becky!! xo

I love my skillets, too. They never leave the stovetop. Will have to try lasagna with them next time. 🙂
This sounds wonderrrrrrful! I love the photos, they really bring out the texture and color of this dish. Beautiful!
Thanks, Eva!! That means a lot coming from you! I looooove your photography! 🙂
This looks absolutely mouth watering. Moreover I avoid making lasagne because of the work involved. Now that you introduced a skillet version I might just surprise my son & hubs with this vegetarian version!
This looks amazing. How is it possible that everything cooked in a skillet tastes that much better?
Thank you!! And, yes, I am with you – everything in a skillet tastes SO good!!
Totally in love with the dark moody shots!
Thank you so, so much, Kiran! Coming from you, it means that much more, you awesome photographer, you!!! I looove your photography style!
Anything with tomatoes and fresh basil has got to be good! What a great way to get the wonderful flavors of a lasagne without all the work. Ingenious!
LOL!! Kate, I have those days many times. Rushing to look like I have been busy all day cooking before he comes home from work. 🙂 The only problem is he works from home several days a week now and then I am stuck. 🙂
This looks like a fantastic meal and he should do the dishes. 🙂
This looks so tasty! Although, if I was cooking it for my husband, I would have to throw some sausage in there. He doesn’t think a meal is complete without a ton of protein. And yes, I have had many of those moments! You’re not alone.
I have been drooling over this since I saw it one pintrest! I LOOOOOVE lasagna and my skillet, so this is an easy YES dish for me.
This Lasagna in 30 minutes? I think we all need this recipe for our busy week night dinner! I love my cast iron pan too, but I don’t think I don’t use enough, especially for desserts. 🙂
Kate,
As soon as I started to read this I bookmarked it, because my Kickin Spaghetti sauce is chock full of vegetables, and to thaw a bag of that and toss with the lasagna noodles would be a quick and easy way to get the flavor I’ve been craving. Now I wonder if I could stick it in the crock pot to keep from heating up the kitchen, and even now I wonder if I could add some V8 to my sauce, and dry noodles, to keep from even turning on the stove.
Man, you’ve inspired me!
(and even though my spouse is away for the summer, I have totally had those moments that I had to jump up and throw something together. If you are a stamper, and have spent the day stamping, that’s when you grab a paper towel and bleach and do some bleach stamping to fool anyone into thinking you’ve been cleaning)
Thanks!
Oh my this looks amazing! One pot dishes are the best!
I don’t have enough lasagna sheets for a full sized one but a skillet version would be a great idea. Thank you for the tasty and very colourful post.
I always love a tasty excuse to play with my beloved skillet! This vegetable lasagna looks fabulous. 😀
Yes please to skillet cooking. Love all those veggies you added!
I will have to remember this one for ball night or soccer night or dance night….looks good enough for the non veg’n and the veg’n that shows up on ball night
I just got a second skillet at a yard sale for $5. I tried not to do the happy dance as we left, but it was hard. I love them so much.
The lasagna looks perfect. Don’t know that I could get my family to eat it, but I’ll sure try.
Skillets are FABULOUS! I made a pasta sauce in mine last night.
Love this! Skillet dinners is how I roll too 🙂
Yum! This looks fantastic! I don’t use my skillet nearly enough. I need to fix that and this a delicious place to start.
I love the color of this lasagna. It looks absolutely wonderful and I love that it’s in a skillet!
Oh, girl…your Skillet Veggie Lasagna looks divine! The only thing I would add is some fab Italian cheeses…even though your sauce looks velvety smooth as it is. YUM! xo
