Bowtie Skillet Lasagna will become your family’s favorite way to enjoy a delicious lasagna meal. From start to finish you can have dinner on the table in under 30 minutes!

I’ve decided there are a few recipes on the blog that deserve a ‘re-do’. When I go through some of the very first recipes I blogged, I can’t help but cringe at the pictures. In no way am I saying I’m a professional food photographer now, but I’ve definitely learned a few things about ‘what not to do’ when photographing food.
Taking a picture of lasagna at 8:00 pm with the flash on, is one of them…
This Bowtie Skillet Lasagna was one of those recipes begging for a new picture. This is a delicious meal and a family favorite of ours! My kids love this. It’s really comforting and always hits the spot. It’s another one of those meals you can have ready in under 30 minutes. Perfect for busy weeknights!

I could have written that first paragraph! I cringe when I look back at the photos from my first year of blogging 🙂 This simple and delicious dish was certainly worthy of a re-do!
Hmm..skillet lasagna…intriguing. I may have to try that!
I made this last night and it was really good and so easy! It just needs more seasoning imo, at least for this southern girl and her family. Heh.
I cooked this tonight and everyone loved it. Thanks for sharing!
Yummy — we didn’t have any bowtie pasta so I just used some egg noodles — still super yummy Thank you for your great recipes
My husband does NOT like sour cream.. Does it add a lot of ‘sour cream’ taste to the dish? Would it still taste as great without the sour cream?
Cortney, I don’t think it adds a lot of sour cream taste, it’s mainly to add creaminess to the lasagna. Maybe you could substitute ricotta cheese, or even greek yogurt!?
And, I actually think it would still taste delicious without substituting it at all. Just leave it out and it should be great!
You say Italian Seasoning, but you show a packet of Italian Salad Dressing mix. Which one please?
DISREAGRD – my mistake. I see now that it says Italian Seasoning MIX.
MMMM, this was so good and easy! I will definitely be making it regularly since all five of us enjoyed it. Thanks for your awesome blog 🙂
