Lasagna is a favorite dinner in our house and it’s so easy to make. I know, it’s loaded with carbs and really heavy in calories but sometimes, you just need a good italian home cooked meal! The is the best meat lasagna recipe ever and the gooey cheese really makes it a winner.
We choose to add beef to our lasagna which is absolutely delicious with the melted cheese. Many use chicken or even seafood.
