Easy Bacon and Mushroom Lasagne

I don’t know about you, but my kids absolutely love lasagne. Don’t get me wrong; I do too. However, I find it a nightmare to make as it is almost as if you are making two dishes. But recently, I have been making this creamy bacon and mushroom lasagne as it is an awful lot easier and quicker to make. My children actually prefer it to the traditional version.
