and preferably without a lot of cheese..
It won't be better if there is too much liquid and the ragu runny. You will get a wet, soggy lasagna.maybe it will make it even better
What's the skillet shortcut?There are so many variations of lasagna and variations and personal taste that the question of best is meaningless. You must first provide your criteria of what qualifies that is best in your view. And you started with the comment about not so much cheese but you need to continue on.
For me the baked browned cheese and crispy bits of exposed noodles are the best part of lasagna.
But most of the time when I make it anymore it's the skillet shortcut variety of lasagna because it takes so much less assembly and work
