This vegetable lasagna was a hit. It took me by surprise because we are always making lasagna using white sauce and whatever choice of ground meat. However, this new twist on a classic dish has certainly exceeded my expectations. It’s not only delicious, but it’s also very healthy and nutritious. The key is to choose the right vegetables that complement the cheese and sauce combination.
