I usually go noodles, ricotta mixture, cheese, meat sauce. Repeat
twice. I save out a little cheese to go on top. I don't like putting
to much cheese on top because then it forms a tough skin and it makes
it hard to cut. However, if you don't put any cheese on top it dries
out before it's completely done.
