Four cheese & meat lasagna. Instead of using only four cheeses, I found that using six cheeses adds great depth to this recipe. The easiest way to do this is to buy a bag of already mixed cheese. If the cheeses are of equal character your starting point could be to use about equal amounts of these four by weight.
