This isn't lasagne.

Sauce from a jar? Philadelphia?! KRAFT CHEESE?!?!

Making a cheese sauce is really easy, and your own ragù will taste so much better than a jar of sauce there really isn't any reason not to do it properly.

Looks like lasagne to me. There's nothing wrong with using prepared ingredients.
