Recipe - Microwave Tips - Lasagne

A trick I learned while working as a microwave oven demonstrator is that
cooked lasagne noodles may be replaced by layering flour tortillas and
thinly cut or sliced up Monterey Jack cheese.

I've found the most convenient way to do this is to slice the tor tillas
into 1.5" to 2" strips and placing the jack cheese evenly on top. Layer as
you would the cooked noodles. While cooking, the two blend together. The
result is indistinguishable from using cooked noodles except that you will
experience an extra richness. If the recipe you're using is very simple you
may even find the results to be better than using the actual noodles since
it does add a very desirable richness and texture.

I do not recommend that you use this method in a conventional oven. I've
tried it and the tortilla/cheese combination seemed to turn to mush and
lose its definition. Submitted by Lawren Freebody @ Salata BBS.
