How to Make Bacon Colby Lasagna

  6. Layer four lasagna noodles over the meat sauce. Top with 1 cup of the meat sauce and 1 cup of the shredded Colby cheese.
  7. Repeat layers: noodles, meat sauce, Colby cheese.
  8. Top with the remaining noodles and remaining meat sauce. Sprinkle with remaining Colby cheese.
  9. Cover the baking dish with foil.
